Hey guys. I might possibly be going as Toboe's Wolf form at some point>< haha, i
ll be wearing his human form under it xD funny stuff! Anyways, I need help. Like, what kind of fur, pattern, how to do the paws, tail etc. If you have any advice, please tell me! =D

First advice would be to start doing yoga now. Otherwise you aren't going to me able to move for a month after walking on all fours all day. >>

that's so cute. i want to hang out with you at the con :) or atleast i think we should have lunch.

Is dat sum furry?

wolf's rain.

i don't know if it counts as a furry. and even if it does. it don't matter. he's adorable.

I'm pretty sure Mike knows what Wolf's Rain is. >>

I'm probably gonna have my friend help me out with it. She's like, the sewing goddess xD

Oh my o.o

Pattern at McCalls

Here's a pattern I found, maybe it can give a general idea of construction?

Since it's a wolf, you probably wanna go with a long pile.. thinking of how wolf's fur is.

But dang, I hope you don't get hot easily :/

then why did he ask?

If your going as Toboe then I geuss ill bring my Normal Kiba

I think he was being facetious actually. ^^


Anyways, you can go to the fursuit community on livejournal to get links to tutorials on how to make tails, paws, and heads, ect. That can be found here:

As for fur, http://crscrafts.com/products/productList....=13&L3=&L4=&L5= has tons of fur, some of which would work for Toboe probably, but the one's that are Toboe-ish in color are only about 1" in length, which would probably look good enough though, as I think colors probably most important. Red fox and tan cubby are pretty close as far as colors go (I have sample cards of all their furs from when I made Shippo).

Too, someone's done a Toboe wolf form costume awhile back, so here it is for some inspiration: http://www.cosplaylab.com/cosplayers/costu...costumeid=28395

Kudos to you fo doing his wolf form....I'd do his human form to cosplay along side you but I'd need a hair cut and a dye job...which might not be out of the realm of possibility now that I think about it since I might not need it long for Shippo in May. Hmmm. Are you doing this for Anime Punch, I know we don't have much time left...

Here's my human Toboe costume: http://images.cosplay.com/showphoto.php?photo=965392

Good luck with your costume!

Thank you all for the help.


But I actually have decided not to do him. I'm now trying to do Kiba because he is the easiest out of the group. The reason I wanted to be Toboe is so I could wear the human form under it. But I guess I could wear Kiba's human form under the wolf form.


He is one solid color which is nice.


See, A while back, I was going to make Nina (Chimera) but I was procrastinating and I didn't have enough time to do it. So now, I have the torso part of her laying, dead, in my closet. It wasn't very good to begin with anyways. My mom was to lazy to actually help me with the full suit. She just wanted me to cover my clothes in the fur <_<


Well anyways you get it. Thanks again!

Ah, I see. Well, maybe I'll make a Toboe suit at some point, could be fun. Though I'd probably make a quadruped version like Monoyasha's Kirara, but fun all the same.

Fatkraken made a Kiba wolf form costume a couple years back, here's a couple pictures if you'd like to get ideas from it.
