Making my own fursuit

Picture of Luhrak standing outside with fursuit head on and hand on his hips. His eyes are glowing and the moon is centered between his ears.

Ever since my first furry convention - that being Eurofurence 27 in 2023 - I have grown more and more of a desire to have a fursuit of my own character. It took me another convention with Nordic Fuzz Con in early 2024 for me to actually come up with a plan.

The plan consisted of me making my own for both financial and creative reasons. I could save some money while also having full control over how the result is gonna look like. As an artist it really can not be that hard right? Well...

I video documented my whole process of making my suit. It is a lot of footage and I edit it down greatly to hopefully have it a fun watch while also being informative. ( Part 2 will still follow once I edit it! )

Now I have my suit and already went to quite a few conventions, walks, meets and dances. Im so happy with it and it was definitely worth it for me.

And best part is that I can make cool pictures now, be it on cons or just anywhere I travel with the suit. And who knows maybe even more cool projects follow it. I would love to join some panels on conventions or do some dance related stuff.
