Getting Started — head base layout
The very first step (after buying more 10mm EVA foam) is laying out the pieces for the fursuit head base. This is the downloadable Mantacraft “kiko” head base pattern which I purchased as a starting point.

Lighting Test for Tron inspired coat
I want to attempt a Cantor/Zuse costume from Tron Legacy. First there is going to be a quick and dirty version of his illuminated tailcoat. These are pictures of a test lighting of 5 meters of white LED strip from a 5V power bank, using one AdaFruit 12V Boost modul.
