Hello everyone! Welcome to my thread about my Dinsu partial, which I am very excited to show to you!
I will post updates here whenever I can! Questions are very welcome.. I am always willing to lend a hand!
Anyways.. As a short introduction...
Dinsu is a Somau, a species I made up to cater to the novel I plan on writing. All in all, structurally they are just small-faced canines with huge ears that extend under their lower jawbone. They are born with white ears and facial markings, the rest of their body being a shade of grey. Upon adulthood, wealthy Somau get the white in their fur permanently dyed (older Somau generally have washed-out markings) certain colours representing family ties or other status based reasons. Some also choose to dye markings into their grey fur (hence Dinsu's stripes). So hopefully I don't get asked the good ol' "what the eff is she" question, hahaha. If you haven't seen her before, this is what she looks like http://insu.deviantart.com/#/d2urq4j (http://insu.deviantart.com/#/d2urq4j)
About the mask so far...
The mask has a plastic canvas and celluclay base (I hope to move to casting soon.) The eyes are resin-cast follow me. The jaw is talking sensitive.

Not really a REAL Dinsu update, but due to lack of time I'll be wearing this tail for Halloween instead of Dinsu's huge tail. :3 IT MOVES THOUGH SO YAY.
I'll be taking commissions on these right away... In case you were wondering...
*looks in empty wallet...*
*sadface*
That's so cool! How is it controlled, just a string?
And how much is your average cost for a tail like that?

I thiiiinkkkk I'll start at 140, 180 for airbrushing/spikes/whatever... Considering the cheapest one on the online market now is around 250 for just the skeleton I think it's a good deal... But I'm not sure.. I'm not confident in my prices yet. D:
There's two strings that run up your back with a special rig that I make (I still need to figure out how to make a sturdy adjustable rig before I can take commissions), and they attach around your shoulders. One shoulder pulls the tail right, the other pulls it left. 8D
I want one!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Put me on the list ;D
Awesome. I'd so buy one if you open commissions~
Looks very cool indeed!
Oh cool! I'm working on one right now! an animatronic tail that moves four ways made of cheap ass stuff I found around the house like a broken bike lock and blinds and straws. how on Earth did you do this?

*runsawayyyy*
Is hypnotic a good thing? o-o
... :D
Yes, they're really big, almost surreal, but really awesome because of it.
I love the big ears. :)
What'd you use to make the eyes?
I cast the eyes out of resin myself. They're painted with glow in the dark paint! 8DD
Thanks for the compliments you guys! <3

First coat of paint! Finishing up the paint job tomorrow and will post a video!
She is going to her first Halloween party tomorrow. :3
Very cool, didn't you post a link to a stream you where going to do?
Couldn't get my camera to the area I was working.. I have to wait until I get my portable craft table. Then I can stream. I don't think anyone was coming to watch anyways xD
heh, I would'a turned ya on for some bg noise. :P Furing is sucky when it's quiet. ;3
A couple picture from the ECU Halloween party!

Me and Hex! 8D I neglected to wear a balaclava.. It's less warm that way.

She still needs another round of paint, her leggings, feetpaws, and handpaws. :3 Not sure how much of that I'll have done by Howloween.
I had a lot of fun! Thanks Hex for coming so I wouldn't be the only furry. XD
Oh man I am in love with your ears. <3
And those eyes. ;A;

Awwe thankuuu.
Either people love the ears or they hate them and are all like FFF TRY GOING THROUGH DOORS and then my soul is crushed. D: >
I thwart doors by being 5'3'' and wearing flats while in costume! ): <
Yeah, It's like that with the head size of my fursuit.
Jasons head came out a little bigger than planned mainly because I wanted to get the FULL cartoon effect. He was also made to be a fullsuit. Though Myself being 5'4 and tiny people look at me and go "WHY YOU SO SHORT, YOUR FURSUIT LOOKS BAD ON YOU." :c But I love my suit anyways.
I THINK YOUR FURSUIT HAS THE GREATEST EARS. ;w;
Defianertly need to suit with you sometime. ^^
