Finding Further Fursuit Facts
The following links are provided as a guide to other furry
costuming resources.
The first list concentrates on informative examples and
how-to pages useful to someone undertaking a fursuit project.
The second list has more photos and visual
content; it's more for casual browsing.
Many of the pages listed are buried within a hierarchy; for
each of these, I've also included a link to the topmost
applicable page (sometimes the author's home page).
The pages used as examples on the fursuit
Designs & Styles Page
have not been included here, though they are good
examples of fursuiting.
NOTE: This page is still under construction.
