Yours looks like it was done by the same mascot company that does the nintendo ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the intent, and the people who made it make suits in a mascot style. They made those mega Charizard suits from a few years back.

Pratzelwurm Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 I made this three years ago. I'd like to make another one now that I actually know what the heck I'm doing (and also I now own a sewing machine so I wouldn't have to hand stitch it), but I haven't had the money lol I think it's pretty good considering, but most people don't get the species right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troj Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 ^^^Don't despair, most people don't get the species right! I've had people think Stitch was an elephant, and a dog friend of mine has been mistaken for a skunk because he's white with black markings.

Calemeyr Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 Working on Snivy at the moment. I'm using CAD to help me pattern. Yes, I'm trying replicate the official mascot suit. Snivy will be a body pid. Now here's something you have to watch out for when making pods: when patterning the foam, make sure it's the outer surface that matches the pattern, not thr inner surrace, or else everything will end up all bulky. The trick is how to do this, and I'm thinking of ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calemeyr Posted August 1, 2017 Author Share Posted August 1, 2017 Update on costumes: I've been working a Snivy mascot suit like the official mascot since April. I still have some tweaking to do with the foamwork, but I'm pretty happy with how it's turned out so far! I hope to have him completed by Halloween time. There's shoulder straps inside to pull up the body, while much of my upper torso is in Snivy's neck and head. Basically built like one of those Japanese prefecture mascots! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyGee Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Did I never post images of my costume on the forums? Eh, I'll do it here. I'm a-prowling in the AC 2017 parade: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calemeyr Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 I haven't posted in a long time, but here goes. So the Zoroark commission I was hoping to get had to be canceled, suitmaker bit off more than she could chew considering she has a day-job. I ended up buying a kitsune partial, but it doesn't fit me too well so I'm looking for buyers. I've recently found a dreamsuit though, something kinda Clockwork Creasures-ish in style. She has hoof boots too! Finally, this year I will be working on a Spyro mascot suit, using 3D modeling help from friends and pepakura to help pattern out the more complicated shapes like the wings and head. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't have this one anymore, Treecko will be an easier project. But the chimera will be shipping next week! I've named her Selune.
