watching people especially the youth in particular find different ways to make fursuits without expensive materials is such a wonderful sign of innovation amongst the community im so glad this looks great!!
Paper suits are one of the best way to make a suit if you dont have the money, or you are just young and wanna make a suit! This is such a good tutorial!
honestly i think this is a great way to get introduced into fursuiting. starting with a giant foam head can be a lot to handle and its super expensive. i glad to see people are finding cheaper ways!
Thank you! This along with your ear and tail tutorial are really helpful for people who aren’t in a financial position to buy a fursuit, or are in a community where fursuiting isn’t accepted and need to privately make a suit.
Oh my GOODNESS. I am a fursuit maker and I am SHOCKED at how amazing this is!!! I never even thought about making a fursuit out of paper. It makes me so happy to see such creative minds in the fandom, being able to think outside the box in such a way!! This looks just as good as a head made with foam (and WAYYYYYYYY better than my earlier works)!!! Seriously amazing and so creative, and because you practicing a lot now, if you do ever decide to make a fursuit head using foam and fur, you'll be a natural! Literally so cool!!!!
i like doing these to plan out my actual fursuits! it lets me experiment with face shapes and patterns without having to waste all that money on practice foam
not sure if someone already said this, but for the eyes, you can also use those coloured translucent sweet wrappers!! for example, when you unwrap a quality street (i think) it has tinfoil and this translucent wrapper stuff. that's also a good thing to use ^^
Edit: I just went and checked out your socials and you so young! Im so damn impressed!!! these are awesome and you absolutely do not deserve any hate you're getting about them, keep it up man absolutely keep it up!!
Tysm this helped ALOT and now because of this AMAZING tutorial I was able to somehow make a snow leopard fursuit head w a canine fursuit head tutorial. That's how much it helped
this is so awesome for younger or inexperienced fursuiters who don’t have the money or materials to make one out of foam and faux fur!! as one myself I will definitely be using this tutorial (with a few definite style tweaks) to make one of my own!! thank you so much for posting this tutorial
I've been wanting to become a furry for a while, but i just can't get started on a fursuit, and i suppose making a paper fursuit head is a good start, wish me luck guys :D
AAA!! I’m gonna go and try and convince my mom to take me to the store to get card stock to make my fursona Trinket! She’s a cat so ima try and follow all these steps besides the canine snout thing :) ty for posting this!!
Thats epic! Heres a tip btw: since its made put of paper you should wear a balaclava! If you cant then you could tape a plastic bag or something on the inside to block your sweat from molding the paper! It worked for me :)
This absolutely helped a lot! I gotta make my first paper fursuit as something temporal until I can get a dino mask or my very own partial. Thank you so much for the tutorial ^^
Hey Elliot! I doubt you’d see this bug in a huge fan! Your partials are amazing and so is the talent you have to make those. I wanted to say thank you for the tutorial now I can officially have a fursuit while being broke 😊❤
This is so helpful! It's a cheap alternative and looks as good as the real deal, might use cardboard for mine to make sure nothing is flattened when I do taping
I fvcking love everything about ur channel! Like u are my favourite RUclipsr, always happy, cool, creative, kind, caring, the cutes dawg, and so muck more. GAAAAH I CANT DESCRIBE HO GOOD U ARE‼️
considering the finished product is covered in duct tape, do you think it'd be possible to do the paper base and then put fake fur/fabric onto it? i've always wanted to make a fursuit, and i think the hardest part would be working with foam but i'd love to have the fur texture still ^_^
im tired of people always saying: "but what if it grows mold?" if paper suits can mold, then so can regular foam suits. mold grows from humidity, and if youre a paper suiter then youll probably have enough common sense to keep it from getting wet.
THANK YOU SM this was so helpful since I haven’t told anyone I’m a furry/therian i was able to make a suit without having to worry about purchasing fur and other stuff this is actually a really good tut and I wasn’t confused at all throughout really looking foreward to finishing my suit and making more in the future :D
I was inspired by your videos to become a furry myself, and I am forever grateful for that! Your paper fursuits are an incredibly creative and cheap alternative to standard fursuits, which I am also grateful for as my broke ass could never afford to buy one and I despise using sewing machines. However, my fursona is a moth, which is by no means a common furry type, so I was looking for some advice on how to alter this design to better suit a moth furry! I'm only really concerned about how to make the head a bit more rounder than what it is right now, as the tutorial is meant for canine fursuits, so if anyone has ideas on how to make this work, please share them with me! Have a great day!
This is so exciting! I've always wanted my own head for my furry character, and I was drawn to one of your shorts! This is awesome I look forward to doing my own in the future!
Definitely gonna give this a try i was so excited to see you had posted a tutorial on how to make a paper suit head!! I have a bunch of colored paper and cardstock. Cant wait to make a suit head just got to figure out if i want to make one of an exsisting fursona or make a new one lol. Keep up the amazing work my guy!
I think I may use you're tutorial as a guide for framework but then finish it off paper mache style. Idk though, I like how the cardstock looks and paper mache would be bulky but also would be sturdier. I guess I'll see when I get there lol
i guess it could work-it would be less sturdy, i tried this and the tape was too small, it fell apart easily. I really recommend shopping online for stronger tape, its around 50c-$1~ or you can get it at your local craft shop!
I wish we knew, but if i had to guess, i think it would be made somewhat like the cheeks, you get 2 identical ear shapes and tape them together at the tip, and puff it out as you work your way down with it : ) (I am REALLY bad at explaining so i hope i did good enough :'D)
I have really bad sensory issues and i hate the feeling of paper, i really wish i could make cool stuff like this :( u did a great job with it though! :D also it's not low quality btw :)
Me too! What I always did, since I used to make paper stuff kinda similar to this, was find old blankets, sheets, or clothes nobody cared about that I was ok with the feeling of, and lining it with that. (Later I just started buying the fabric at Walmart lol) if you want to you can always try that :)
THE TALENT TO DO THIS IS AMAZING! i tried doing this and let me tell you... is not the best:[ just wanted to say you have amazing talent!!! EDIT:did it 2 days later fully prepared and it WORKED OUT FOR ONCE:]]]]]
Im digging myself a hole by doing this in my room hiding it from my antifurry parents Edit:#gotcaught Edit 2: making another one (I still have enough supplies,also giving likes to all the comments:3 MADE IT :3 (I'm keeping it at a friend's house because their parents aren't anti's and I got permission)

The duck tape helps smooth it out and create structure as well as shape I’m not sure if it matters or not but the whole thing is trial and error for me ❤

What if you don’t have card stock ? Can you use regular paper?
It's okay! This tutorial is still a pretty good one and I think it's gonna be helpful to me in the future :))
@Rain.luvs.dragons im guessing yes? But ALOT of it and make sure it’s good quality

You know you needed this tut when you’re sitting there, next to your failed attempts without a tutorial trying to pick which fursona to make first.
all of this is genius! love it!
ive always considered making one out of paper, but never got to it out of it not being durable.

What brand of markers do you use for these (the ones i use do that thing where it dries up fast)
Tip for making eyelids: make half circles of paper if u want to make the eyes look sleepy!
Thanks this really helped for my first paper head all i need now is the motivation!😅
I WAS SO WORRIED CAUSE I THOUGHT YOU COULD ONLY USE DUCT TAPE UNTIL I READ IT THE NEXT DAYYYYYY
im tired of people always saying: "but what if it grows mold?" if paper suits can mold, then so can regular foam suits. mold grows from humidity, and if youre a paper suiter then youll probably have enough common sense to keep it from getting wet.
Yea and only wear it for short periods of time because it will absorb your sweat
THS IS SO CREATIVE AND AWESOME???? OMG????? I'LL DEFINETELY TRY IT OUT FOR MYSELF
If anyone is planning on making a foam fursuit head for the first time I recommend starting off with papersuits as practice :)!
Do you think cardboard could also work for this? I wanna see if I can make the muzzle a little more sturdy
Definitely! I've done a fareshare of masks (not heads) so I would definitely assume it will work on a fursuit head 😊

can i do this without using duck tape? my parents are antifurry and it would be weird if I asked for ducktape
Yes! Any tape would work, or you could ask for duck tape and make another project it’s it and have a lot of duck tape left!
