I finished my first tail ever last night!

Sorry if it looks a bit fuzzy in these pictures, I was just trying to take a few quick pics before bed, and didn't smooth anything out for them. I trimmed all the fur down by hand, and might work on evening it out a little bit more this evening.

This tail has a carved foam armature in it, and just a little bit of stuffing around that to help with the shape some.

I wanted it to stick out straighter than it ended up hanging, but I might be able to adjust the belt loops a little bit to help with that. The fur ended up being a bit heavier than I thought it would be!

I think my next project will just be a nice easy canine tail of some sort :P. For some reason my first attempt at anything is always probably more ambitious than it should be.
