The almost entirely pictoral fursuit tutorial

I'm a visual sort of person. A picture is worth a thousand words, so I thought it might be easier on me, and still quite useful to all of you, for me to just take lots and lots and lots of photos as I make a fursuit.

Some of the photos kind of suck. I am not very good with a camera, though I'm learning.

Most of them have captions, but none of them have instructions. If there's something that really is confusing you, you can always e-mail or IM me with questions, I don't mind. But I figure a lot of pictures is a pretty good way to start. You'll need to be familiar with a little basic sewing, and know how to make a duct tape dummy, which subject I don't cover here, but everything else I do when making a fursuit is pictured.

The suit I'm making in this tutorial should end up looking something like this concept drawing.
