Ears and Tails really steal the show for a kitsune costume. But who doesn't love adding a bit more detail and intrigue into a costume design?
Five tails and no cares! |
Tooth and Nail
Little Tooth, Long Nails |
The design of your kitsune will determine the length and ferocity of the claws and fangs. They evoke different things.
Large, prominent fangs or claws suggest something more monstrous, carnivorous, and dangerous.
Smaller fangs pose less of a threat. It simply showcases that there's something not just human about the creature.
More often than not, false nails tend to be what constitutes claws.
Paws
Something that is more animal than human are paws.Those aren't people feet! |
Eyes
Finally, one of the cherry on top details are eyes. Foxes are unique among canines because they have slit pupils instead of round. So if you are going for contacts, you'll want to look into cat-eye or slit pupil versions.
They're just kittens pretending to be dogs. |
That should cover any major details to add more "animal" flair to your fox character. I do intend to make a fursuit series eventually, so I am not going to go into deep detail about making a full headed mask or anything like that.
Next, we can talk about Masks and Makeup.
