I have a few probably dumb questions. I've searched through the memories and I believe I may already have some ideas for them but I feel I should ask first.
1) How do you go about creating a flap/slit at the wrist for your hands for when the hands and sleeves are attached?
2) I made big hand paws by carving foam and I want them to attach to the sleeves. I am considering either velcro or heavy duty snaps. I'm torn since I feel the velcro might eventually peel off from the foam and that the snaps may be visible under the fur. I am leaning towards the snaps but how do you hide them? Which is better?
3) To attach the pawpad (probably gonna be fleece) to the foam paw.......how? I know how do it with normal handpaws but for what's pretty much a big block of foam, I'm lost. I figured I'd sew together the main color of the paw and then sew the pawpad onto that. Or something.....meh.
4) For the pink part of some rabbit ears I am making, I am considering using minky cuddle fur rather than fleece or whatever. Anyone have good results with that for ears?
5) I want to use aluminum wire so I can have poseable ears. How do I go about foaming around that and attaching it to the head?
So yea..... probably simple as hell questions but between working on this and dealing with work, my brain just killed itself.
