A long overdue continuation of my tutorial. It's brief, but you get the idea. If you have any questions, go ahead and note me. The next step will be trimming and putting the ears on. Working on Part 6.

If you need any help with finding fur, i get mine from spotlight, though they may not have that near you. I actually used a fur blanket for my suit, since its cheaper, and i think the texture more suited her (no pun intended)

Where do you buy your fur?

I was just wondering, shouldn't the pattern go down sticky side up (or to be easier, put on a piece of paper, cut out, and paper side up)? Because if you put it down on the backing, it will make the same way on the backing but when you cut it out it will be mirrored, such as if you taped the left cheek it would come out backing side to the right cheek and fur side to the left cheek.

Ah, okay. I assume that's what you do since your masks are so symmetrical? Also, do you have any tips on furring around the nose? I have done it before but it takes me a few tries to get it to not stick up and all that jazz.

Using this for my next mask!
So is the fur stitched to the foam or does it just slip on like a glove? Visually I feel there is a step missing between 6 and 7. Overall great tutorials though!

Why is it that my duct tape severely sticks to the foam? Is there something special I should do?

you could wrap it with cling film first, then tape over the cling film? You'd have to maybe use long pieces of tape so it doesnt fall off while you're doing it :3
