I have a question in regards to the sintra. It's held my curiosity for some time but before I go to purchase any, may I ask how difficult it might be to cut it or by what means you do cut it? Hot knife? Dremel? Thank you!

[umbreon843]

Well, i have a question, the "Head" part about the 5 methods, do you need to use all 5 of them to work or use just 1 of them?

[WolvesShadow14]

Where do you buy the glowing eyes?

[CanineHybrid]

@WolvesShadow14 They were custom made by Monoyasha. There's a link to her info in the description. You can also make your own by casting LEDs in resin but it can be a difficult process.

I use a gumball machine to hold my balaclava lol. great videos!

[AkawiiFari]

I have a question, on your Leafeon's eyes, did you color them using a pen or paint? And what material did you use to see through the eyes?

[CanineHybrid]

@AkawiiFari They are made from aida cloth- a cross stitch fabric. I colored them with Prismacolor markers. My friend used Crayola markers & they bled after receiving moisture from the sweat in her mask but I have not had this issue.

You could try paint but careful not to plug up the holes w/ excess. Also try using buckram because it is stiffer than aida- I had to make a plastic frame, cut from a bowl, in the shape of my eye to get the aida cloth to be nice and taught & stay firmly in the mask.

@CanineHybrid Thank you!

[animemaster1991]

omg thanks for posting these vids, they are going to be so much help

[CandyKitten100]

Thank you so much for making this :3 I love all you costumes, I've actually been watching you from the beginning~

But to the point, I've been wanting to make my own Fur suit for a while :D just head paws and tail though :) And this has really helped, already buying the stuff to make it :) Anyway this is a really random comment, just wanted to say how much it helps <3 i have got one question though, when i make the head, will it still fit a long time?

[CanineHybrid]

@CandyKitten100 Aww and thank YOU for the awesome comment, I'm thrilled to hear you keep up with my work and really like what I do. I'm so glad these videos have begun to help you out with your project.

To answer your question, Yes! Heads typically fit you for a very long time, since your head stops growing earlier the rest of you. After you reach about 12 years old it's essentially full size. Even if you grow more, it'll only be by an inch or so- plenty of wiggle room to plan masks around.
