Well for a basic quadsuit I charge around 700, but if you want it in time for Halloween I'm not sure that I could do that. I cant make any promises that you would have it by then and to try I would have to charge you around 200 in rush fees.

oh thats a bit more than i expected what about if i dont need it in time for halloween and you can take your time? would that be a little cheaper?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That would make it cheaper. But it would still cost you around 700 in the end.

hmm any discounts? what if i bought all the fur foir the suit?

If you buy all the fur and foam it can lower the price but that depends on where you get it.
I buy all my materials from the best bargain places I know of.
The cheaper you go the lower the quality gets though.

I beg of you! could you please give me some tips on how to make one and where to start? it's my first time making one and I'm not exactly what you can call an "expert"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well the first thing you need to do is make a duct tape dummy to work off of.
Then you can use it to foam and fur your suit accurately.

this is my first quad and i would like to know if your using pipes does it make your hands feel wierd after awhile. what type of eyes do you prefer reisn or follow me eyes?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
sorry for the late reply.
The pipes for the stilts can hurt one's hands if they are too small a diameter or if they are not padded properly but overall they are pretty comfortable. One thing that is good to do if you can afford it is to put small fans at the bottoms pointing up at your hands as it does get hot inside the stilts, cutting vents in the pipe is also helpful.
I like both resin and tooney eyes. I can make resin cast eyes following if I want, and the range of vision is about the same for both types; so its really a matter of personal choice and what works for the character your doing.

Umm can i ask you a few more questions?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Okay First question
how will i be able to see?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
this is actually an old blueprint, the new way I make my quadsuits is with the head mounted above your own on a helmet at an angle and you see through a vent in the neck.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thank you for answering my questions!
I think i have just a few more. Second question: how do you shape the head?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
no problem.
There a a few different ways to shape a fursuit head. If you are making a foam based head you just build the head in the shape you want it with the foam. If you are making a plastic canvas based head, you glue the foam to the plastic canvas frame and shape it with scissors to look how you want it.

amazzziing! this helps alot! thank you for posting this!

Thanks. This is actually outdated. I'm hoping to find the time to draw up a better more accurate one soon.

Ah,this looks quite explainable!
So in general, for the front paws,all you need is for a PVC pipe that you can comfortably fit your hand in,and in isn't to big or to small to make the arms look out of place,and you put the handle, which I resume to be a small block of wood shaped to let your ands wrap around, inside the pipe with....?Hot glue,LOTS of it? Nails...somehow? Please tell me you used hot glue!
Either way,this is very good. I will most definitely reference for this when I start on this around the end of the year

well this was drawn a while ago, I'll be drawing new blueprints soon. So the head would be mounted on a helmet at an angle to make it comfortable to see out a port in the neck. The stilt handle is a dowel a comfortable circumference for your hand to wrap around it inside the pvc pipe. The handle is connected inside at either end of the dowel with screws through the pvc and dowel. I'll try to draw up new blueprints as soon as I can find the time.

The neck and head position looks uncomfertable, you might want to change that. You should probably look through the neck not mout. I learned that the hard way in my quadsuit XD

ya, I know; this was drawn a while ago before I knew how to make proper quad suit heads. I'm thinking of drawing up a new blueprint.

Thanks for this, can be used to help partially design my own quadsuit - have been talking to others here about the head and other parts but couldn't quite grasp a few small details!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ya, but keep in mind this is just one way, there are lots of different ways to make quadsuits. I have homework too. poo, that is how i feel about it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, i have looked around, A LOT, i got a pretty good idea of what i want to try to do
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
the head will look funny like looking down why not try this method looking out the mouth with a moveing jaw mec >[link] or >[link] its a lot comfyer and you dont crane your neck to look around ^_^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ya I've been told that its more comfortable and more realistic, but I dont realy like the bump in the neck thats created, and the mouth kind of hangs open with that method which I dont like. but to each their own right?
