[HOW TO MAKE] SHARK TAILS
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 дек 2024
- It's #sharkweek and I figured making a shark tail tutorial would be absolutely perfect for yall! :D
This would work well for sharks, manokits, some protogens, and even cosplays! I'd absolutely love to see what you all make!
--Thanks for watching!--

I'm not a furry myself, but I'll never understand how people can look at this hard work and skill without feeling some degree of admiration!
Nah fr- I am a furry so I probably can’t have an opinion but this shit is talented stuff I could never do-

We need more supporters like you people who just admire the craft it doesn’t make you a furry but its very refreshing to see someone who doesn’t just blindly judge people :)
You sound like a camp counselor that loves their job and I'm living for it.
Ikr!
TRUEEEE
Hm that reminds me of someone….

My fsvorite comment
You should do the tutorial on the “cute gore bit” as well as helpful stitching!
Yes I have a sona that has a scar and if I make it I want it to be creepy
She has made a tik tok once with the gore part! I don't remember if she did one for stitching tho.
I agree
Toxic The failed science experiment mugiwara cosplay has a tutorial on scars here is a link ruclips.net/video/iennG_GoQs4/видео.html
Yee
the fact that you're cutting foam on carpet is such a power move
underrated comment👑
The little foam bits are always a nightmare to clean up cause my vacuum usually can’t get them and I have to PICK UP EVERY SINGLE LITTLE PIECE while my CATS are trying to EAT THE FOAM BITS!
Lol true
Me who does this and does it in my room
me: *makes a dogshark fursona*
this: *pops up in my recommended*
me: oh ok
Me: buys a coyote shark character that I'm making a suit of
Neff: makes this tutorial
Me: Neat!
Omg i was gonna do the same!
Me: makes a Manokit character
Video: Pops up in my pop-up messages
Also me: I feel like I gotta do this now, if I only had the materials
me: makes a manokit character
my recommended:
Me: Ima re make my shark puppy suit.
* goes to look for Neff's super motion tail tutorial*
Neff: * 2 weeks ago Shark tail tutorial *
Me: Oh Oddly specific but even better!
I've known a fair few new makers get very anxious about starting out and often get disheartened by things going wrong or not working quite right first time. One of the best things about your videos are the tips on common pitfalls, and telling your own experiences of trial and error, things that don't always work perfectly first time. It's really positive and encouraging, keep up the great work!
I'll always try my best to encourage others. ^_^
Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
Neffertity: *Flails on driveway with shark tail*
Neighbors: ... "Honey, she's wearing that tail thing again!"
may i just say its not an orca tail its a Shark tail
Totally
@@Puppzz also they said shark tail
@@katrinajones6839 I edited it so it would say shark tail but it used to be orca 😅
@@sketchpon3 ok lol
"Smiles are free"
I smiled for the first time in weeks 😅 thank you for that!!!
*OMG SHARK!*
Oh don’t worry it’s just a dragon
*oh ok...WAIT WHAT-*
XD

Me: I wanna make this but I don’t have a fursona with a shark tail.
Me **making a sona with a shark tail**
MAKE A MANOKIT JOIN US!!!!!
Toxic The failed science experiment haha! I haven’t made a manokit sona yet... but I do plan on making one!
I have 9 different Fursonas for different parts of me and since Im afraid of water i have a Manokit bc Ironic
I wanna make a dragon oc that has a shark tail
Toxic The failed science experiment YES PLEASE JOIN THE MANOCULT
Neffertity: it's softer than a kitten!
Me:
*impossible*
chonki hah lol 😂😂
Bunnies and chinchillas tho...
I think she meant a kit
Fəlix the furry when heard what
Lol
Would love to see how you did the hibiscus flowers on there or just tattoo markings on general my manokit has some really pretty flowers on her and I would love to see how to make that on her
Neffertity: *is using an electric knife to cut foam*
Me who doesn’t have an electric knife: 👁👄👁
Ash The software cat you can cut with scissors to I think. Or a normal knife. Issa bit hard tho so good luck
Ash The software cat I’m good at fast cutting so 😗✌️
I used a normal knife but boi oh boi do my hands hurt
I do have an electric knife but my mom thinks ima lil kid and won’t let me use it
When i get foam imma get my dad to do that part beacause i would suck and i only need a small tail I’m not that tall
Using a normal knife is ok as i dont have any scissors that are really sharp or have thick blades though using a knife is hard it does the job its a good cramper and hand work out to i tell you that😭
im not a furry, but i absolutely LOVE watching you make these ADORABLE TAILS ;D !
"If gore can be cute"
Me: Candy gore!
pastel gore~
Oh wow this is amazing! I especially love the little cutaway/gore detail, it turns the tail on the body into a prop that adds to the costume even when taken off, so it’s never just like “I took part of my costume off So I could sit”. That attention to detail is sooo good
The motion in your tails is amazing! It's really cool that you're sharing your knowledge with the community. The specific tips are great too
You should make a fursuit to match that tail, I’ve actually never seen like a shark fursuit.
She could definitely make a premade and sell it if she wanted to! I'm sure someone would buy it but she might have commissions backing her up which is why she's selling it as just the tail.
@Jericho October makes sense
My freind has a shark cat character and I'm helping her make make it into a fursuit
There’s a species called the manokit that is kinda shark-like
There is an intire Species that only has shark tails and it’s called a manokit ;-;
Please do the tutorial on here for the gore cut away detail. I don’t have tik tok to be able to watch it and it would be very helpful to others who don’t have tik tok as well!!
I love your tutorials! They help me see how I can improve and provide higher quality products. Like I would have never thought to use the elastic where the fin meets the tail. It's such a good idea and I can implement that into lots of things I make. Thank you!
I agree!
The extra detail that makes it look like you cut it off is so awesome!
I personally do not use a electric knife, but I do have a foam knife that is sharp enough to crisply cut through foam with a sharp enough blade. It’s great to work with and is much easier than cutting it with scissors.
I needed this tutorial! TYSM!!!
“I’m looking at you, botw!” *sidon smiles handsomely as I shiver in fear*
*Neffertiry:* If you guys want a more in depth tutorial on..
*Me:* *YES*
When I’m older and I’m able to buy a fursuit I am definitely asking you to make one for me because you make them so beautiful 😍
Yes they r wish i had money for one they cost sooo much u could try make head your self I did n turned out ok got £50 for it
Her commissions are closed but when you can you can go to her website to commission her for a fursuit!
You are absolutely amazing, these tutorials help so much! Keep doing what you want because they turn out awesome! You have officially become my favourite RUclipsr! Thank you!
As someone making a manokit partial, i can not explain how helpful this was
Does the "super motion" effect work OK on smaller tails, like something 1-3 feet long? I love the effect and how well they wag, but I wouldn't want a tail quite as long as what's shown.
I made a small normal tail about 3 ft and it kinda wags but not the greatest
I'm definitely sure it will if you do the cuts properly. Maybe like 3-4 cuts for a size that small and the first 1-2 would need the excessc it while the others would be quick slits. If that doesn't work, there's always other methods! Especially for smaller tails!
This should be called how to be an awesome suit maker because that’s what you are😊👍
She may be an awesome fursuit maker, but that’s not a good title for a shark tail tutorial. Just saying.
Siamese Warrior I’m trying to compliment her geese -_-
Magic Bucket I think you mean geez. I don’t know if she has geese.
Life lesson kids never be nice because some dolt will always ruin the good mood
Magic Bucket I’m just saying, it’s not practical.
Gasp! New content, I wasn't expecting it so soon!
Um... We SERIOUSLY NEED all of the tutorials that you suggested in this video.
I'm most excited about the gore and want to see the small details and stitches ones as well!!!
I had art block for a whole week..😔
But you got rid of it! Thanks for making such cool and inspiring videos! 😊
I ended up finishing my fursuit tail and creating a protogen fursona today!! :D
Good job! =D 👍
Nef! For my hot glue pins, I usually keep an acetone or rubbing alcohol soaked sponge near me that I use as a pin cushion of sorts! It cleans the hot glue off well, and they can be reused good as new afterwards! I’ve found this is my favorite method of keeping pins clean and shiny!
I know I am super late to watching this video, but I was obsessed with sharks when I was like 3-5 years old. Seeing you wear the tail and swish the tail was so cool! Now I MUST make a shark fursona and have that as my first fursuit.
THE TAIL CROSS SECTION IS SO GOOD AND GIRLBOSS OF YOU
Used this tutorial for my manokit tail and it turned out so good!! Thank u for this tutorial 👌🏻🤩
While I’m not a furry I must pay respects to all the tutorials they’ve uploaded to help me for my cosplays! This one in particular is a great find for my ellen zzz cos!
I'm glad it was helpful!
This tutorial was really helpful! I think a gore cut away tutorial would be just as cool
It's amazing how much care and effort you put into your works.
Who else is just jamming to the background music?
Just me?
That's fine by me 👁w👁
Also. amazing tutorial. Will definally take notes for future projects.
Keep up the great work!! 👍
Yeah
OwO rtx on
what r these songs. I know its thefatrat but which songs. gimmie the list of songs
@@BlackKitsune_05just search the lyrics
@@BlackKitsune_05also when i was younger i thought the krew was made by thefatrat
As a person no yet but considering being in the furry community, i hate how people say furries are rlly weird people when thats only like 10% maybe not even that of the community and then there's amazing and talented people like u who put so much time, love, and effort into these furrsuits, y'all are just amazing tbh-
Tysm for the tutorial! Didn't expect to get called out because I'm here for the Sidon cosplay I'm attempting 😂
Ayyyeeeee! Nice!
Honestly would love to see a hand sewing tutorial from you! Even the cute lil gore details would be a really cool thing to learn tbh would love to see how ya do that!
I have a question:
How do you put the tail?
Do you attach it to the pants, add a band or.???
Idk for sure but I think with most there's a hole you can put a belt in
Or strap
And yeah this tut was very helpful! I know skulldogs aren't related to sharks, but I thought it would be so cool to have a long, upright, finny, scary lookin tail for olive. He is going to be so cool!!!
Who else watches these for fun, wanting to do it, then never doing it
Watching you at the end bounce around made me giggle! What a sweet tutorial! ^^
Me: *has already made a shark tail with no tutorials*
*This video comes out*
me: ... THANKS
Lol-
RUclips fr hates us
Thank u! I’m making a manokit suit soon and I had no idea how to make the tail so this helps so much! ❤😊
As a Cosplayer, thank you VERY MUCH 🫶
Thank you so much for this tutorial! This was so helpful, I made a kimono shark tail it was shorter and a bit stubby but that’s how I like it I’m so happy with how this turned out!
When I get old enough to move out and I don't have my parents looming over my ass, I hope to do stuff like this, cause this is epic-
That’s true my parents do the same thing.I’m getting a dino mask so I don’t look suspicious
That's amazing! I'd love to see a tutorial for the base of the tail, I think it would be super fun to make a character with parts that could detach like that :D
It's nice being able to see someone make a longer tail! Usually it's just little nub tails :]
I love my long tails
@@Neffertity they are so cute compared to the tiny ones! :D
Also I'll be using this soon and I can't wait to show you when it's done :]
OMG THIS IS PERFECT
Hi neff! I love your content! I am planing on making a manokit in late December. I am wondering if you can do a back fin tutorial and how you add the elastic. Thanks❤️
Possibly
AWWW THAT INTRO WAS PERFECT!!!! ❤😭🥰
I'm trying to become what I call a 'Multi Maker' where I can make any type of fursuit design (kemono,resin,cartoony,etc.Same goes for animals and what type of suit,like digitigrade or quad)
,this really helped alot
no one:
me, watching fursuit tutorials as reference for something unrelated: ah yes. very interesting.... (and rly helpful ty!!)
I have one of those mermaid blankets, would that work if I made adjustments to fit the foam
Omg thank u this is Alot of help since I am gonna be making a mano-kit fursuit!!
I would love to see a cute gore tail tutorial, I've been trying to learn how to do one for so long. Please and thank you.
*I know no one is going to notice this comment but whatever*
I was the shy kid in the family, was hard for me to tell anyone anything, and so I recently discovered I was a furry and bisexual...idk how people tell their families this stuff but I had to say something about it in some way but..yea I'm scared I wouldn't be accepted by my family, cuz my whole family is straight...
I was terrified as well, but I ended up telling my parents and they were pretty cool with it. I suggest maybe starting to ask like hey do you know what a furry is? What would you do if I was a furry? How do you feel about furries?
Give them hints really. Unless you feel like you aren’t safe telling them. Just do what you think is right
You aren't born a furry tho... It's a choice to be a furry
Stinky Pete I know but there so many bad things that non furries think the furry community is so telling your parents is scary cause you don’t know what they’ve heard and your parents might be stubborn and not believe the furry community is anything but adults fucking in big animal costumes and child predators
Make sure you feel safe before deciding to come out to your family! You're a wonderful person who deserves to feel safe and comfortable. If you do talk to your parents I hope it goes well for you
Hey! Don't worry x they'll accept you! It might be a shock at first as it would be for anyone but soon they'll get used to it! 😊😊 Also, don't worry about being a furry... IT'S AWESOME!
I'd love to see your new supermotion tail tutorial! I want to make one of those tails soon, so I'm going to look out for your updated tutorial!
this is precious !
also super excited for the updated super motion tail vid
Could you do a version of this with a big fox tail?
“A certain orange thief stole the other sock”
Me: “the Lorax...?”
LMAO😂
BRO THE WALK AT THE ENDDD WOAHH I MIGHT JUST MAKE THIS TAIL
I want to make this but not sure 🤔 it would be cool to wear since I like wear tails idk wut to do :T (also I don’t have a character for it SO I SHALL MAKE ONE)
It looks like you had a lot of fun making the video at the end you're very modest cool
Can you make a diy of how to make a catfish fursuit tail pretty please?
Eventually yes.
Can you make a video about paws? Or did you already do one?
they made one
ruclips.net/video/xH_ntyvtWUE/видео.html
She already did one, its called how to make puffy paws
Thanks

"This is a sew-in fable-c b.. this is a sew-in fabric stabilizer" 😂😂😂
I'd LOVE to see tutorials on tattoo-like markings and stitches!
I'd love to see a tutorial of the gore cut away!
Thanks! This is going to be so useful! You’re very skilled!
A question, I’m going to make one of these to take to raves. Do you have any tweaks you’d recommend for that? I do a LOT of jumping and dancing, and I don’t want to wear down the belt loop, for example
You may want to look into using a weight lifting belt for that.
It has a much wider area of support
@@Neffertitythank you! I’ll look into that! 😊
What is your glue gun? high temperature or low?
The SONG IS PERFECT!!!! The electric cuter really "can help you out"😎😋
One question: is your wrist trash after cutting all of that?
Gonna use this for my fish sona I'm making! Though the only thing I am unsure about is how much foam overall would be good to buy for a tail of that length including all the fins, did this use 1 or more yards for the 3inch and 1inch foams?
This is gonna be sooooo helpful for my koi sona 😅😅 tysm Neffy!! ❤❤😊
Would super glue be more effective when gluing down the elastic along the tail?
I do not recommend using superglue
Me: watches tutorial
Tutorial: Music comes on loud and stays loud
Me : ....House party time?...house party time....
Me: Dances*
I like how she explains everything instead of just doing a speed video lime some creators other than that this is amazing!!!!
Hi.
If you don't have foam here's how I do it:
And sew all the tail pieces, but make a small opening on the beginning of the tail.
Use that opening to turn the tail rightside-out and then fill it with some poly stuffing (use a lot of poly-stuffing so you can give the tail it's stiff, structure without it deforming).
You can either hot glue the opening shut or sew it shut then.
You can hot glue/sew a a belt loop, (which are two looped pieces of elastic) Then you have a tail!
Cons:
It may not have as much movement/bendability as the one in this video. (You can wag it, but it'll be stiff and stay in its exact shape)
If you're making a big tail like the one in this video, you need to have a surplus of stuffing, you have to stuff it ALOT to have it stay in its natural shape, otherwise it may deform after a few years of wearing.
I think I missed something, I have no idea how you got the duct tape off. Like, I know scissors, but did you use cling wrap or something? Or did you straight up put duct tape on the tail foam?
This really helps me with my sona! THANK YOU EEEEE
Definitely gonna implement a lot of this when I make my raptor suit tail in the future!
Me: buys a coyote shark character that I'm making a suit of
Neff: makes this tutorial
Me: Neat!
I had a very bad day before watching this. I got home and my materials for my new dino mask broke and fell apart so I had to buy more materials which cost me another 100 dollars 🤦♀️ but I got home and turned this on and started working on my dino mask and I cant tell you how many times I laughed and smiled watching this. Well bye for now! I love your content!
While I'm being an unproductive hooman, Neff out here literally making shark tails half my height 😀
So I have a question on what song name that is at 10:02? I can't find it and it's super catchy.
No one :
Literally no one :
I SAID NO ONE WAS HERE
yea no one is here but i dunno where they are
-
I honestly don't know why this is so good
Does anyone have any recommendations for specific pairs of scissors to use for shaping the tail? Or know where to get an inexpensive but good quality electric knife? 7:47
Amazon.
I recommend Fiskers brand
Thx but are you talking about the scissors or the electric knife?😅
@@anime_simp_loveshanako-kun4537 scissors, as that was your first question.
As for the electric knife, I have been using a "Mister Twister" electric carver and it's worked pretty good.
2:16 cat: *wtf are u doing mom?*
Im gonna do that but in other colors. I love you and your creations! Its gonna be fantastic for me Mano-kit
Thank you neffertity for inspiring me to become a young fursuit designer ( im not open for commissions but soon for art adoption)
XD i like at the end how Neffertity just wips the tail around XP im really look forward on making a shark tail now! Thanks so much for how to make it
Omg i love it 🥺❤
