Sorry it's taken me so long to reply! Thank you all for your comments. She-King - I definitely wanted to go for a toony look since a realistic face just wouldn't match the personality of the character. I don't understand why people make such a big fuss about making fursuits or artwork in general completely accurate anyway. All I can think is, "It's a fandom full of bipedal talking animals and you're concerned about accuracy?" I just hope it looks more smiley when it's actually made and furred, because I'm having a hard time seeing that as it is. NightFell - I really want to make a foam and balaclava head. One of my concerns with the resin is if it's going to be too rigid. I want my fursuit soft and cuddly! But some friends bought the materials for doing a resin head and we're all learning together, so I'm doing it this way for now, especially because we're all going to be doing volunteering type stuff as a group at Christmas, so we'll want some uniformity. I might try doing a foam and balaclava of my actual fursona on the side, though...

About your fursona: Coyote Gender: Female Location: AZ Artist/Writer: Both Been to any cons: Anime Expo, Phoenix Comicon, Kikori Con Fav. music: Most, preferably classical rock (not classic rock, though I do love that, too), by that I mean Transiberian Orchestra, Mannheim Steamroller, Bond... I'm not sure if there's a better term for that style of music. Likes: Sewing, Cosplay, Music, Drawing, Acting Dislikes: Yams, cigarettes, bad spelling/grammar/math Church Denomination: Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (aka LDS aka Mormon) Hey everyone, I'm looking forward to meeting you and making new friends. I'm currently working on my first fursuit and I'm really excited about it. My friends and I are all going to be reindeer and will be doing volunteer type events during the holidays as part of our business. I have several characters, but my actual fursona is a coyote. Living in the desert I see them often, and I can really relate to their association with finding humor even with misfortune. My life has rarely been easy, but my way of handling difficult situations is always to just laugh about it (this does not always mean I actually find something funny, it's just how I handle stress!) I have an amazing husband and son, and I love them very much. That's all I have to say~

Did that fix it? My apologies, the image showed for me when originally posting it so I assumed it worked.

This is my first time making a clay sculpt for a resin head, or any kind of a fursuit head. It's for a reindeer character. Anyone with fursuit building experience? I could really use any suggestions anyone might have. Thank you!
