Hi community! I didn't see a tag for this, so I'm going to assume this may need more discussion. I have recently started working for a company where I get pounds of latex rubber to take home. The latex rubber is actually from a hypo allergic plant called Gauyule and doesn't contain the same proteins that cause allergic reactions in people with Latex Type I and II allergies (which I also happen to be).
At this point I've accumulated enough rubber that I'm curious to try out some costume making with it. I am toying around with the idea of making some masks and perhaps a few paw pads and noses. Can folks point me to resources or other posts where people have used latex rubber to make fusuits? Additionally, once I can get going on using some of this rubber, I plan on following up with another post about it. Depending on the amount of interest I may see about giving away some of this rubber in exchange for fursuit stuff, but it will be on a matter of interest generated.
