Hello! ^-^
I've been spending the past couple of months looking at tutorials for my first fursuit, yet I still have some questions.
I plan on making a baclava head, however my head is so big that most hats don't even fit me. I don't understand how people can use this method on a manakin head while having it accurately fit to their head. Wouldn't the fur pattern be shapped incorrectly? I understand that some people measure the demensions of their head and add foam to the manakin, but that doesn't seem accurate. I know I could make a duck tape head cast, but that sounds like a pain in the butt, plus I need to find a willing helper. What is the best way to apprach this?
I plan on making a kawaii style fursuit, and I want it to have acrylic eyes. I think I can do it, but do you think I'm taking on too difficult of a task for my first suit?
And I'm obsessed with this color of fur.

Did the maker dye it, or buy it that way?
Any advice is greatly appreciated! <3
