Fursuit progress

Aight to those uninformed I have a fursona. He's some type of sheep and can also be seen in my about page. I have decided after many months of procrastinating i shall lock in and actually be making my head.(... its mostly because my flatmate has a 3d printer)

theres a con just around the corner so im hoping that i can complete it and show it off at the con. No pressure... oh god.

I will be upd8ting this thing weekly (hopefully) so I can compile my thoughts n such.

before i make anything irl

One of the things that i deeply regret about my uni experience is not doing digital fabrication as a minor. because that shit would be REAAAAAAAALY helpful right about now. Anyways i digress

I want my fursuit head to be kinda more realistic and uncanny. i think theres something attractive in some uncannyness yannow? what im saying is that if someone compared my head to that goat guy from pans labrinth then i would be very very happy.

I have made the head in nomad sculpt or atleast the top half. I was kinda stuck on the bottom half bc i couldn't get a mouth that didnt look absolutely goofy as shit. but i have found a possible solution which is just wrap the bottom half with a scarf. it saves on filament so thats also a plus! (i also dont have to do ears)

One downside though might be the heat. I live in the southern hemisphere. so that means november is the beginning of summer so i might be overheating in this thing. but also also from my experince with other fursuiters i think thats just inevivitible so fuck it be ball

Im also thinking about weaving some chainmail chains inbetween the horns. bc why not?

I also need to be thinking about how im going to look though this head.

I also need to think about if i want this guy to be fluffy or if i want people to slap his bald head...

waow much to think about

Hollow out and turn the sheep obj into a stl

Using the automatic hollow out bullshit in blender and meshmixer was extremely frustrating process that dosent even work so im being a neanderthall and using the boolean tool and a smaller version of the sheep face and using that to hollow out the face. It works and im pretty sure that itll be stable.

this has also let me get a better view of the inside.

hmmmmmmmm maybe i should put some holes somewhere so i wount be blind as a bat

I have also made indents on the head so the horns wont be a massive headache in the long run
