YubNub the Ewok WIP

I was able to scrounge enough cash together for the fur for this thing. I'm so limited with so many things, it seems. A family member gifted me with some money to buy the fur and hands for the Ewok. I crave practice. I want to get better at this so badly.

I'm sure plenty of you recall Callix the Akita's head I tried to sell. Weeeelll, that failed. As much trouble as he gave me, I decided to re-use something I had made and since he sat on the shelf and was never used, I gave him a purpose.
He will be missed, yes and one day, recreated as a fullsuit.

This is YubNub the Ewok. I'm part of the starwars costuming association and this is my first costume to get into the association. I'm aiming to get it approved for an accurate membership. I get a badge and everything and its so fullfilling!

 I wasn't really going to post here, but this is a fursuit, basically.

I'm working on ventilation to the MAX! Staying cool, getting water conveniently through the mouth, tinting the eyes to black pools, putting teeth in the mouth, and anything else I want to do right the first time. A lot of stuff hasn't been done right on this thing, but once the fur is on it, you'd never know how fugly the craftsmanship was underneath.

I striving to be neater on purpose, my craftsmanship has always been a cursed obstacle to get over in many mediums.


Oh, and the fun glasses orange thing on the chin is to shape the chin, but breathe with its vents. It will allow heat to get out, rather than having a foam jaw. The face is basically open, but I'm struggling with ventilation. I think I've solved the breathing issue with the funglasse vent.

Water is going to be achieved through wearing the camel pack under the suit, which adds to the padding that I'm trying to figure out. The head is so big I need the body to match. I'm skinny as a rail! Unfortunately, I built everything to fit the size and I can't cut it down, or it wouldn't look right, but I did freaking slice this thing open so I can BREATHE!

Sorry about the poor lighting, our house is so dark, EVERYWHERE, we can't get enough light to fill the room.
This is the latest update. I added nommers to her. Its a requirement, I found out to have teeth. Wish I would have paid attention to that before i mad the lips! The clean up is terrible!
