Hey all!
I've been creating fursuits with only buckram eyes and going into kemono style eyes.
There's the weight of the foam and potentials for the heads being smashed, especially with large eyes like Jolteon's. Would there be a tutorial out there with interior support like a frame to keep the eyes from getting smashed/bent? I am curious about a flat wood support inside, but feel as though it could snap and break or get wood splints unless its covered by fleece.
Once an eye is bent up, would there be a way to straighten it back up without replacing them? I am just curious, I don't want to try a hair dryer on something that might melt or get worse. I never wrestled with my suits or have done anything similar to that, it just tends to happen over time I noticed.
I understand there may not be a whole lot I could do about this, as i'm planning on leaning towards plastic eyes moreso due to some of my fursuit eyes are showing small signs of warp/bending and could get worse so i'm not expecting a lot of answers, however they would be a big blessing as my suits have a very large field of vision and it would be amazing to keep it that way but not feeling as though i'll find a way around it XD But I wish to get the kemono fursuit eyes looking nice with less damage done to them if at all possible.
Would appreciate all of your knowledge!
