Aviet - Wolf Quadsuit stilts and padding test

Well then, I'm pretty darn happy with how this is coming out so far. And don't bash and hound me just cause I'm a furry, not all furries are bad. In fact, most furries are really good people. Anyways, I wanted to upload this since it's my first suit and I was hoping somebody out there could give me some advice on something I should change before I start furring the head, stilts and body.

What do you guys think so far? I'm planning on making the head have a jointed moving jaw, gotta figure out hwo to do that next now that the stilts and tail have been figured out.

Foam is fucking expensive. 0-0...
Anyways, I've only spent around 100 dollars so far for this and the fur i've bought for it, maybe 200. People say these things cost up to 2000 dollars, I think not. If you know hwo to do it right and have a few useful things lying around the house, it should be simple enough.

And yes, Aviet is my fursona and she is some kind of strange wolf/golden retriver/husky mix. Fun, right? She's still all black though, despite the blue swirl on her shoulder and the three little dots around it. -smirks happily-

Oh my god... so long for this to upload x-x 48 minutes for 1:43 seconds worth of video? You've gotta be kidding me.

All work done here was learned from tutorials and righteous guesswork. If you need help understanding something for making a quadsuit, I'm here to help, I just don't know everything yet. Considering I'm asking for help as well. haha...

Where do u buy the padding

[wolfsrainparadise]

@katethewolf1 I bought my padding at JoAnn's Fabrics.

Did you pad the legs? If you did how did you do it? How did you attach the claws? I'm going to start a quadsuit. Also it would be very useful to know where you got the blue/green foam.

Haha, I would say you're asking the wrong person for advice, but most quadsuiters never give advice.

I only padded the legs on the joints to fix a few problems with how they were moving and then taped the padding so the foam wouldn't rip. I attached the foam and claws using a hot glue gun and bought my fabric foam from JoAnn's Fabrics. Where I live, it's at the very back of the store, a bunch of big foam pieces or sheets. Good luck! :)
