So I'm trying to figure out some details on how to start on an armadillo fursuit. I've been trying to get ideas on how to go about the back/head plating, but am finding that not a lot of people have made armadillo fursuits. I know this might be difficult to explain without pictures, but I'm going for a toony-esque suit that has black back-plating and I was thinking of using pleather for the material. My question is, how would you folks go about the inside of each section of plating? My first thought was creating a pattern for each section of plating and then stuffing it before sewing it together/to the body suit. My second idea (which is probably more expensive) would be to make the shapes from foam and then duct tape pattern/cover in pleather. Anybody have any insight?
