  • Hey i have a question about fur. I'm making a faun costume with padded legs. I'm struggling with how to attach the fur in such a way that i will be able to bend my legs. I know fur has some give, it is stretchy but not hugely. Any tips? Should i just go for it and hope for the best?

  • @OnAngelWings Make it a little loose, so it's got slack material to move over the knee. You could also build a two piece leg on Spandex, with a flap covering the knee bend, that way you can have a tight leg with a slightly shaggy knee, but full range of motion.

  • there's a dude on youtube who made an interesting addition to your design. he added a bit of wood under the front of the shoe to take the pressure off his toes. with yours don't your feet get hurt? its just im wondering which design to follow and if im to be walking about in this i want the most comfort possible. thanks for uploading this nonetheless, it really helps with my costume!

  • @OnAngelWings This is discussed briefly in the How To book, SquigglyLee added a toe support to his design, too, and he said it increased comfort.

  • where can i buy or find places to get the fake fur?

  • You can buy fake fur swatches (smaller squares of fabric) at the craft section in Wal-Mart, you can buy fur cut form big long rolls at fabric stores like JoAnne fabric. Craft stores almost always have the smaller swatches, so big chains like AC Moore and Micheals will have fake fur squares too. Fur off the bolt (long roll) is usually easier to work with, but the swatches can be high quality, too.
