Feets

[bladespark]

I'm considering changing how I do feet. But then I make something like this with my old method, that comes out soooooooooooooo cute, and I change my mind back again! I dunno... Anyhow, have some snow leopard feet.






I do need to tweak my pattern in regards to the pawpads though, those are, honestly, awfully small now that I look at the finished product.

those are so cute!

I think it's good to have multiple methods for various things... and those look so comfy... are they?

They're fairly comfortable. The outdoor style without pawpads on the bottom is moreso, these will make your arches ache eventually, but they're not bad.

A friend sent me a link to this place and I thought you might find this interesting :D

Ooooooooooo. Thanks!

Those are really cute.
Are they sock based? Slipper based? No base at all? :P
But yeah, I think bigger pads would look better :)

No base at all, they're made entirely from scratch.

Wow that is cool. You are the only other person I've comes across that makes feet very similar to the way I do.. I think. :]

I don't know how you make feet, so I have no idea if I do or not. It involves craft foam, polyfill, fleece, fake leather, and of course fur and in this case dye.

Hahaha.. awesome. Do you line yours with fleece? Cause that's how I do mine. they are completely sewn, just fur and fleece. And the toes are foam covered with fur. Here's a rather bad pic, lol.

Pretty similar, looks like.

I do also do ones with shoes inside, to wear outdoors.

It's probably because of the fur encroaching around them

I know my cats who have had longer, thicker fur, IRL their pads look smaller because the fluff between their toes spreads over it. So probably if you were using a fur with a shorter pile, they wouldn't look so small once they were done. (Of course, since you're doing a snow leopard, that would be kind of counterproductive...)

They are adorable. But yeah, I guess the pads could be a little bigger, now that you've mentioned it. Still, though... FUZZY!!! ^_^
