I'd go out of pure curiosity if someone else paid for my badge/hotel/travel expenses.

I'd go if furries didn't smell like rancid ass, make cringy weeb noises and use over played out memes as their means to start a conversation. For me it would be a Disney cheracter reject con. A place to watch others stroke their egos because they where not able to make the cut for the goofy actor. 1 shot for every person in a fur suit wearing Tripp pants and 2 shots for every fur suiter in a furry cosplay.

Yep! They're cute.

Oh, totally. Fursuiting takes some serious dedication and even a mediocre suit takes a fair bit of skill, so if nothing else there'll always be a ton of skilled crafters at a furcon.

I know a lot of people take issue with the disney aesthetic of a lot of fursuits, but fact is that fursuits are more diverse than ever in terms of style and aesthetic.

Not to mention dance-offs in suits is pretty awesome.
https://youtu.be/Y8vuXyM7zAY

I like the craftsmanship of fur suits and can appreciate the time and effort that goes into building a good one. Some of my friends are also pretty much closet furries and my best friend has already asked if I'd go to Furpocalypse with her. I think it would be really weird but I'm not opposed to it.

As a furfag myself, I can agree that we're horrible and smelly. Yet I still do it.

Why has no one mentioned Babyfur Diaper Hell Con?

>>9160533
I love those!!!

>>9160534
Yeah, some of the really good fursuits require a ton of time, effort and skill which I can respect. I make plushies and sculpt animals so personally making a fursuit actually sounds like an interesting challenge to me. Not sure if I'd wear it to go to a con though.

I think it would be cool though to make fantasy suits of creatures or monsters for LARPing however.

I read through this once already after the con happened but I can't resist reliving the train wreck.

>mfw I'd go to a furry con if it was cheap just to see this shit in action

Went to one earlier this month (Megaplex) for the first time. I was too embarrassed to let anyone know I was going and I went by myself mostly to see what their artist alley was like. Holy shit it was so much nicer than trying to sell to anime kids. Even the teenage furries were surprisingly less annoying and autistic. Also it was only $30 for the day, they have me a really nice commemorative glass, and the AA table was free you just had to wait for an opening. I got several commissions from it too so I'm still making money from networking there. The costumes have always intrigued me and as a crafter I think they're pretty damn neat when they're done nicely. Also I stuck around to watch the dance competition and that shit was intense and awesome. All in all I had a great time and I genuinely like their community from what I saw as an outsider.

>>9160709
Also parking was free and I heard the hotel had a lot of nice perks like free food and in some cases free alcohol. You didn't have to pay extra to go to raves. There was an ice cream social and a pool party, several cringey panels but a few legit ones about costuming and character performance, a dance competition in suit, a dance competition out of suit, a shit ton of stuff to do that all seemed fun and everyone was really friendly and welcoming. The artists I was next to were normal and talkative and polite. I don't even care about their reputation I had such an enjoyable time. Even though my whole reason for going was to sell shit I got sucked into their fucking happy attitudes and furries are now a-okay with me.

i really hate the neon-raver-cartoon-mascot style of 99% of fursuits. they're cringey and just make me think of the weird porn drawn by adult children who jerk it to kids cartoon characters.

however, stuff like pic related, is amazing. the realistic "fursuits" are awesome and worthy of respect. (i saw a REALLY high quality crow/raven one on tumblr recently that i can't find now on google search, it looked like an actual bird-human hybrid and was probably the coolest "fursuit" ive ever seen)

>>9160686
S-so what happened at Oklacon?

>>9160759
this. I don't like furries, but its only the sperg neon rave style furries who's "original oc!!11!! donut steel!!!" that act like total asshat man children. ive found that people who make and like realistic pursuits are much nicer people and put more care int their outward appearance. plus their craftsmanship is awesome!

Only if i could remain completely anonymous.

>>9160806

Heck yes.

>>9160806
not if its a shitty mascot/sparklefur. then it's exactly as boring and generic as con deadpools.

>>9160558
I think every group has people who smell bad. One time at a FLGS that sells dungeons and dragons stuff and such,i remember one dude who smelled really bad.

ahahahahah christ. now I want to go to a furry con to drink and document all this cringe and mental retardation. Thanks OP

>>9160829
Are you going to do it and upload the pics? Would that violate GR3?

One thing i have found funny is that over the internet,many seem to know about furries. But seems many irl don't know about it.

>>9160834

Going to my first furry con this October to sell some tails, can't wait. I've had a great experience with most furries. Some are very stereotypical, but they are all really nice for the most part.
I mean, as far as cringe goes, its no different than anime fans/weaboos

>>9160242
God forbid we actually have original costumes on /cgl/ and not something copied directly from whatever is popular.

>>9160873

Yup. Weeaboos can be bad as well. I know one weeaboo who dresses as naruto and shouts like they're powering up and speaks really bad japanese.

Believe it or not,there are some furries who hate those who give the thing a bad name. I have met many furs who are very chill and are not like that csi episode. One thing i wish is furry would become mainstream and cons multifandom cons would carry furry stuff. Cause furry is a fandom and it shouldn't be left out at other cons.

You've got to be joking, right? The only way I could see furries being included in a convention is a costuming convention. Whether you think it's a "fandom" or not, expecting fandom conventions like, I dunno, that Sherlock or Supernatural con or even an anime con to have furry stuff just because "muh fandom should be included too!" is just stupid.

It's already weird enough when you go to anime cons and there's always that one booth selling ears and tails and collars. Like really, how much more shit do you need?

To be fair, well made cartoonys take just as much effort in terms of balancing the proportions and getting the colours clean.

>>9160879
In my experience, the furry community is much more pleasant, far less pretentios and elitistic, and less drama-prone than the cosplay community. Yes, there are nutcases, but in general there's a much higher respect for both suit creators, visual artists, and suiters. Maybe because there's generally more money involved. The young teens who are furries are either super dedicated, or just stick to online forums. People are much better about keeping NSFW stuff where it's only found by those who're looking for it, unlike cosplayers who will defend their right to walk around in a thong and nipple pasties until the end of time, or weebs lugging around body pillows, or shippy photoshoots in the corridors.

With that said, there are far more casual anime fans going to anime cons, than casual furries going to furcons. So the average furcon will probably be more nerdy and spergy than the average anime con.

>>9160947
>Believe it or not,there are some furries who hate those who give the thing a bad name.


Everyone hates furries at cons, I can't think of a single good experience with furries. Not to mention they don't know basic con shit either like not stopping in the walk zones or they'll just "photobomb becuz funni"!

I thought someone was trying to rob me and had to literally bite my tongue to keep from being rude to them so yeah, most furries at costume/anime cons need to learn manners. In all my years I've never had the weebest of weeb grab my stuff or me without at least saying something first, much less just snatching at it when my back was turned.

Ive met folks with aspergers. their biggest strength is the ability to be obsessed with something and just go at it with determination.

Get over furry shit. It will lead you to be a useless adult that will do jack shit with their life. at least with the level of obsession youre already showing.

Find something useful to obsess over and become good at. A skill like working with electronics. Crafting things to sell. Learning languages and becoming a translator. Something actually useful.

Otherwise youre going to be a fucking joke. Online and offline. For the rest of your life.

>>9161027
see >>9160982 also I can confirm we had two furries at our local anime con and one got removed by the police for sexual harassing the other literally because they were the only other fursuiter there.

No one likes furries because at cons they
1. fail to understand proper manners
2. creepy as fuck
3. never understand simple con stuff like stopping in the hallways or going where they aren't invited
4. Have to tell EVERYONE they are normal and furries aren't "weird"
5. generally take up a fuck load of space at cons/vendor halls

Yeah I am sure there are exceptions to the rule but they are few and FAR between. Some weird weebo is not even close to the same level of furries


>>9161027

This. If wearing cat ears and a tail made you a furry then there would be hoards of them at furry conventions.

>>9160533
I've seen some really cool suits but those were always either Japanese alt fashion/street art or European fantasy or LARP monster costumes. For some reason American furries are always those creepy brightly colored Disney mascot rejects.

>>9161027
>I can't think of a single time a furry has caused trouble.

I have been to a lot of cons(20+? lost count), I can probably could the amount of non weird furries on one hand

>>9161019
I just looked through that and man, what a shitfest. Not going to defend that one and I've no idea what happened there. Babyfurs have always been a minority, and I've never heard of anything like this before. Again, there's always nutcases, but that's something extra.

>>9161036
Do you also consider Zootopia fan characters not to be fursonas? Nekoshit is also furry, just a different kind of furry.

>>9161056
I think this is one of those things where the dividing line is simply whether or not you consider yourself a furry. Most people like anthro animal characters, but most people are not furries.

>>9161056
Yeah, you backpedal hard bro. This isn't an isolated case. See >>9160928 and >>9161019
wasn't all babyfurs, just regular fursuiters using the con as a fetish/hook-up con like pretty much all cons. This one was even family friendly so that just makes your case look worse.

>>9161056
>Do you also consider Zootopia fan characters not to be fursonas?

What the fuck does this even mean?

>Nekoshit is also furry, just a different kind of furry.
No it isn't, stop with that shit. Even furries will say "just putting cat ears or a tail on is not being a furry".

There are fanservice photoshoots but that's nothing more than young female weebs posing together and kissing for photos, not whatever the hell it is that's going on at furry cons.

>>9161065
Partly what >>9161069 and >>9161091 said, but I still think that what I described is the experience most people attending furcons will have. I still think that generally, the furry community is more pleasant to interact with than the cosplay community, and I stand by what I said about there being more respect for the craft, as well as for artists in general.

Again, I'd never heard of Rainfurrest, probably since I'm not american and don't actively seek out cons over there. If it was an accurate representation of your average furcon I imagine the response from the twitter feed presented would be less along the lines of "holy shit guys what the fuck". Also, no furcons in general then because I can't imagine any hotel or conference center ever wanting to deal with that.

>>9161068
What kinda furries have you been talking to? Yes, it is. Being a furry is being interested in the humanisation of animals, and japans kink for girls with cat ears is just that. Just because you chose not to involve yourself with the community, or just find it aesthetically pleasing doesn't mean it's not also a furry thing.

>>9161090
It's like everyone forgot yaoi paddles, dakimakuras, teenagers shoving their tongues down each other's throats at photoshoots, weebs walking around with chained collars as their OTP, slutted up anything (especially if it involves corsets or bunny suits which are both common kinks), people taking panty shots, latex cosplays, etc. etc. etc.

I'm not saying furries are perfect when it comes to the sexual part (even if yes, I still think that for the most part we're good at keeping the explicit stuff out of direct view in public), but stop pretending that anime cons are. Just because the fetishes more prominent there are generally more common and thus less noted doesn't mean it's a fetish-free environment. Liking looking at someone dressed as movieverse Mystique doesn't make it less exhibitionistic, so maybe stop acting all high and mighty about it.

For some reason there are always a lot of those sparkly neon cartoon fur things at my local Ren Faire.

I wish the organization would kick them out but muh discriminashun~

>>9161123
>all this denial

Dude, furries consistently have a bad rep at ANY con, not just anime cons, for a reason. Anime cons and people at them generally know when to cut the shit out or at least respect peoples surroundings most of the time.

Obviously there are some exceptions but the overall community is light years beyond what furries are known for and how shit they are. I can tell you after working with vendors at some cons furries are some of the worst people

>>9161125
You clearly are new.

>>9160799
I really wish more people would make suits like this and like winfoxie

>>9161134
>Anime cons and people at them generally know when to cut the shit out or at least respect peoples surroundings most of the time.
I think its because their face is visible. People can recognize them. They can be photographed doing these horrible things and it can be shown to their parents/ makes it easier for security to catch them in the future at other cons. But the furries, its the anonymity that makes them feel like they can do shitty things, and if people learn that a certain suit is an asshole, that person can just get another suit so they can go unrecognized.

>>9161144
>They can be photographed doing these horrible things and it can be shown to their parents/ makes it easier for security to catch them in the future at other cons.

lmao what? You understand how hard it is to recognize someone in cosplay not to mention if they change it?

Unless you catch someone on video stating their name and address with their ID and badge it's damn near impossible to track anyone at a con, or do what you just said. People don't realize how unorganized cons actually are, and proving something is next to impossible because "he said she said" doesn't fly.

>>9161152
>lmao what? You understand how hard it is to recognize someone in cosplay not to mention if they change it?
It's easy. I have worked security at a large con before and we had a book of past offenders and troublemakers.You assume the shits doing the awful stuff are good at cosplay and 'disguising' themselves. They're not. They're usually the absolute worst so yes it's very easy to recognize them.

And yes assholes have been caught at the con I was working from phone pics people had taken. It's not as hard to find these people as you think especially when theyre not shy. At all.

>>9161160
Guess I haven't been to many large cons(AX my largest) or seen some of the really bad shit people have done. Worst I've seen is someone in my group get walked out because they were too drunk. Then again, thinking back I guess that's probably a minor offense and not even worth noting for con staff.

>>9161160
Yeah, it's actually very easy. There's a creep that goes to a few cons in my area and people can easily identify him based on the fact that he wears the same damn cosplay to pretty much everything/people have taken photos of him and circulated them around. If you're a creep or an asshole at a con, people will know about it.

Furry cons seem to almost condone the most bizarre/gross behavior (from what I've seen anyway). Furries wouldn't have such a bad rep if the good stories outweighed the awful ones.

>>9161163
>Worst I've seen is someone in my group get walked out because they were too drunk


That's cute. Shit that gets you banned from cons is generally more than "normal shit that happens to people". Shit that gets you banned is assault, stalking, stealing stuff, breaking things, etc. Being "too drunk" isn't worth noting unless you are doing something like mentioned prior or puking up shit everywhere.

>>9161163
The ones that I actually helped on and that I recall the most was a guy dressed in an overcoat like you see as a joke in some animes and he would expose himself but he was wearing a flesh-tone body suit so it was ok by con standards. Creepy but ok. Hours later around 9pm he's still doing it. I was at a different area of the con when word began to spread that the dipshit was now actually naked under the trench coat. Girls were bringing security pictures and two videos of him in action and that was more than enough proof for us to go find him and sure enough he was completely naked except for the coat and his shoes. One of the staff had to run to catch him but kek, he got turned over to the police.
These people that do these things are not serious cosplayers so they tend to do easy, lazy things like this guy because they don't really care about cosplay- they're they to be an asshole and get drunk. Anyone who spends alot of time on their costumes and is good at it isn't going to risk being banned from the con for life or jailtime for stupid shit.

>>9161175
Okay yeah that's definitely something that I can see someone getting banned for. Like I said the worst I've seen is someone get walked out for being to drunk and he complied with con staff the whole time once he realized he was being a dumbass. Doubt that classifies as something bannable though.

Guess I haven't seen as much shit at cons as I thought

>>9161184
It really comes down to the con and how it is staffed. I doubt anyone would get banned for what you stated, maybe kicked out till they sober up but that's about it.

>>9161175
>These people that do these things are not serious cosplayers so they tend to do easy, lazy things like this guy because they don't really care about cosplay- they're they to be an asshole and get drunk.
The same can be said about fursuiters too, the ones that are into it for that kind of crap usually have the worst looking suits.

Except thats not a furry thing or whatever, that happens at every con whether its a furry doing it or not.
>cat ears or tail =/= furry
My point is its not that far off. Furries and anime go together fairly well because of the neko culture or whatever. You can sell cat ears and tells to furries AND anime fans.

--

Why is there so much hate? It just annoys me because there is so much hate because, what, some are cringey? seriously? And its anime fans calling them cringey? That cringe in of it self.
If your gonna hate on a group, hate on one that actually deserves it.

>>9161208
>hate on one that actually deserves it.
aka furries

>>9161211
But why? They aren't worse than any other group of people at a con. The only people at a con that I can think of that are almost always annoying are deadpool cosplayers, but even they aren't too terrible.

>>9161208
There's so much hate because the vast majority of furries have proven, time and time again, that their incapable of interacting with people like normal human beings. I would be cool with them if most of them didn't run around squeaking and pulling on people.

I really do enjoy well-made fursuits but being around furries for more than five minutes makes my skin crawl

>>9161208
>Except thats not a furry thing or whatever, that happens at every con whether its a furry doing it or not.

Except that is a trait that furries are KNOWN to commonly do, like the majority of them do that. There can be 10k people at a con and have some creeps, but they are a minority. Furries are constantly associated with those things because they ACT that way constantly.

>My point is its not that far off. Furries and anime go together fairly well because of the neko culture or whatever.

lol no, cat ears do not make you a furry the same way gluing gears onto something does not make you "steampunk".

You're trying to do exactly what I said in point 4 by downplaying what is to try and normalize it to the majority that DOES NOT WANT TO ASSOCIATE WITH YOUR COMMUNITY.

>>9161220
>vast majority of furries
Not even the same anon but reading /cgl/, the same can be said about the vast majority of cosplayers.

>>9161216
Mostly because in my experience they tend to take over the con and they're people like OP who whine and want everything to be catered to them and they have little to no boundaries.
I can count on both hands the number of times I've been minding my own business and a fursuiter decided to be 'friendly' and get up in my face and try to mime at me while squeaking like a defective chew toy trying to get me to play along and treat them like they're an actual dog wanting belly rubs or hugs.

They're like the most obnoxious in character cosplayer but with the added quality of never knowing if the person in the suit is some weeb-tier furry or a creep with a hardon.

>>9161208
Answer me this, at a con for furries or the like how many times do you see anime cosplayers show up? I'm not talking about your """neko ears and tails""" but like legit anime cosplayers? Probably slim to none right? That's because people generally don't want to force their way into a community that doesn't associate with them. There is a reason for that.

>>9161220
>>9161221
>Except that is a trait that furries are KNOWN to commonly do
same with anime fans, same with comic book fans, same with D&D fans, same with LARP fans. If you are going to hate all furries because of the social awkwardness stereotype, then you gotta hate a lot of other groups too.
I just don't understand how you can hate furries for being annoying, but not those other groups when they are equally as annoying.

>lol no, cat ears do not make you a furry
I... never said they do.. I said, you can sell cat ears to furries and anime fans, so they can collide just fine, unlike, say, comic and anime fans. You can't really sell very many comic related things to anime fans. Things like, say, lolita and anime can go well together too since many anime fans and lolita fans like similar things. Thats my point. Its not as if they are completely separate with nothing are similarity.

>>9161224
Not really, no. Out of all the cons that I've been to, I've only seen one really and truly cringeworthy incident and it was a group of teenagers. All of the adults that I've met have been pleasant people. I can't say the same for furries.

>>9161226
>they tend to take over the con
You mean like how Narutards, Homestucks, SAOfags and every other popular thing of the time does yearly at every con.

>>9161231
good job leaving out
>but they are a minority


The furry community has those traits as the MAJORITY

>>9161232
The cringe threads here prove otherwise, there are more cosplay and weeb related horror stories on the web than there are furry ones.

>>9161233
Narutards and SAO fags at least fit the theme of an anime con. Furries outside maybe 1 or 2 exceptions, have 0 relation to most cons that they force themselves to fit into

>>9161235
>The cringe threads here prove otherwise


You know half those posts are "shit that didn't happen" right? If most of those stories did happen people would have talked to staff to kick them out.

>>9161236
People dressesd in normalfag clothes don't fit either.

>>9161231
It's not just 'ugh they're so annoying!'. They literally invade your personal space, touch you without permission, and they don't even talk which makes it that much more awkward. Not to mention they're in giant suits that hide their faces. I think the fact that they're hidden/anonymous is what makes them act out like that because I can't understand it otherwise.

>>9161235
Maybe on /cgl/ (which is...you know...geared towards cosplay). I can go on pretty much any social media site and find a good chunk of horror stories about furries.

>>9161235
>there are more cosplay and weeb related horror stories on the web than there are furry ones.
Bruv, you must be joking. You're honestly using /cgl/ aka COSPLAY and Gothic Lolita cringe threads and their lack of furry stories as your statement point? Much less saying /cgl/ is all of the web.
You know why there aren't any furry horror stories here? We don't post furry shit. We have every general under the sun on /cgl/ but we've NEVER had a fursuit general and that's for a reason.

>>9161237
...and the furry stories must be totally true because they are on the internet and little photo evidence, ok.

>>9161238
and those normalfags generally stick to themselves or are just going for panels/etc. People never fucking complain about "wow see that guy who DIDN'T cosplay?!"

>>9161238
>anime con
>wearing a costume isn't mandatory
>NORMIE CLOTHES DON'T FIT, THEREFOR FURSUITS BEING NON-NORMIE IS TOTES OKAY

You must be bait.

>>9161241
You are obviously new because convention horror stories aren't always about cosplayers.

>>9161243
>little photo evidence
There was an entire imgur dedicated to DOZENS of horror stories at ONE convention. If that isn't proof then I don't know what is. Get your head out of your arse.

>>9161243
Furry stories are known outside /cgl/ and across the web for being shit. Attempting to use cgl cringe threads as the whole internet is fucking dumb. cgl is a fucking rain drop in the con community

>>9161234
>The furry community has those traits as the MAJORITY
being very involved in the community and meeting countless furries at cons, I disagree.

>>9161240
I've had far more non-furries glomp me at a con than furries.

>>9161235
This is one of the stupidest posts in the thread. Yes there are a fair amount of horror stories but those are the MINORITY, general furry cons and stuff like bronycon have a MAJORITY of horror stories.

>>9161250
And the annual con orgy of Youmacon, which we had plenty of threads about, is totally tame.

>Look mom I'm pretending on the internet

I'm kinda curious what a furry con is like, though honestly I also want an excuse to wear my Halloween moth costume I made again and blend in.

I can appreciate the efforts in making realistic suits and cartoonish suits. The ones who don't say anything kinda irks me. Theres a local furry who only squeaks and nothing else, and it's.. interesting to say the least.

>>9161288
As someone who went to brony con, I can tell you that that was too much for me. I can't even imagine what a full on furry con is like. I still have horrible memories from that

The fact they used family and friends to incorporate how they "discovered growing up" was so sickening I wanted to fucking die. They literally were talking about how the put <agegroup> into ponies because if it is an anime then whatever.

Seriously I guess there might be furries that aren't fucking sick but I have yet to see one.

MLP is basically the scab of furry communities, it can be picked at and if you pick it even a little you go too deep. The furry community around it is so much shit you do not even want to know.

I do

>>9161256

Yup. I have met many anime fans who will glomp someone and are very cringey,as for the diaper thing,i saw someone dressed as a adult baby one time for halloween and the person wasn't a furry. I think Uncle Kage needs to do more pr for the furry fandom.

Hey ya'll, i'm a fursuiter so if you have any questions at all, please ask! Also, you know that All The Single Furries video? Yeah, even we hate that.

I definitely would go to a furry con if possible. I am a furry artist and I would love to be able to meet some of the other fur artists I know irl.

I have met many other furries within my province and they are for the most part really nice people. Sometimes you get the cringe 15 year old or the creepy dude but that's basically any community I've been in.

>>9161504

Same here as well. All the furries where i live are chill people. Sure there are jerks,but you will get that in every group.

Sometimes I wonder how some of these cringe stories would sound if the fursuiters were women...

>>9161123
Yup. At a anime con i saw some cosplayers dressed up very scantily clad and should be told to cover up.

>>9161546

I know some girls who fursuit. Like the girl in op's pic

>>9161546
I would assume it'd be no different.

Lmao at all the people saying furries are creepier because they're "anonymous" and you can't see their faces. You guys understand that their suits are unique and recognizable and everything they do in public isn't anonymous? They are walking around in giant identifiers. If Telephone groped someone she wouldn't get away with it because "no one knows who she is her face was covered".

>>9161573
Furries deliberately post warnings about other murrsuits and tell people to stay away. They even get banned from conventions should anything happen.

>>9161579
>>9161573
Maybe recognizable within the furry community but I can guarantee you I wouldn't be able to tell one from the other unless they went out of their way to make something incredibly stylized or they modeled their suit after a specific character

To be honest, the only fursuits I can stand are the "kemono" style ones because I find them much more aeshetically pleasing. K-Line is known for making these really nice ones that have the anime aeshetic to them.

>>9161579
>murrsuits
These should not be allowed outside much less at a con. Jesus Christ those are the shameful people in the community not the poor teenagers wearing pink husky masks.

>>9161585
I don't know dude. If a giant green lion humped me I think it would be easier to pick him out of a line up than it would be to find a Deadpool or a fat Naruto out of a sea of Deadpools and fat Narutos.

>>9161586
These look so much less cringy than the Disney rejects. Isn't the creator from Japan?

MFF last year has been the only con I have ever gone to and I was nervous at first ( have terrible anxiety and was asked to go so my friend didn't want to go alone ) but it turned into one of the most fun moments of my life

Everyone was super nice and respectful. I've never had so many random conversations with strangers, compliments, etc.
Sure there were a few bad eggs here and there but staff was pretty quick to stifle any troubles.
The staff actually was amazing in general, they helped with our overly intoxicated roommate and a pretty nasty cut my friend got on his hand.

The suits were super cute, I accidentally stopped the fursuit parade 3 times cause they kept trying to hug me and it as pretty hilarious.
Hotel staff was very cool and seemed to have fun with the festivities
Dance contest was cool

IDK I see why people would be weirded out but I thought it was amazing~

>>9161573
>You guys understand that their suits are unique and recognizable and everything they do in public isn't anonymous?
And they can get another suit and be anonymous again, not like an actual person at an anime con who can't change their face.

>Not to mention they're in giant suits that hide their faces
you just hit the nail on the head, that is exactly what creeps me out about fursuits and mascots, and why I never wanted to go to disneyland even when I was little. 30 years I've been trying to figure out what gives me the willies about it, and you nailed it. thank you. it's that plus the fact that the facial features are so exaggerated and cartoony. there is a specific kind of unreality about it that is off-putting to me.

come to think of it, it might actually be why I don't like clowns or mimes either - the makeup hides/distorts their features enough that it almost might as well be a mask. it doesn't scare me per se, but it makes me a bit uneasy.

I mean, if that's what they want to do, have at it I guess. god knows I have had odder hobbies. but to answer OP's question, I doubt I'll be spending any more time at furcons than I will at clown conventions (do they have those? they must, somewhere).

that being said, fursuits like this
>>9160759
>>9160792
>>9160799
don't make me as uneasy. maybe it's because they look so much more like real animals. they're actually really pretty. the cat reminds me of one of those victorian postcards.

Kemono suits do not use resin eyes. They're painted mesh with plastic film over them. Resin-eyed heads always have huge tear ducts because you can't see through resin.

Both of those are horrible anon. The green one looks like a reject 60's Star Trek monster with those glossy scales set onto what looks like felt, and the white crocodile thing's eyes don't even line up, one is much higher than the other. The way the scales are painted onto the fabric is amateurish at best as well, if you're gonna do that you need to be more thorough and not just dot the paint on randomly.

that is pretty awesome. I'll have to check out stuffed panda before I make my suit. I'm very new to the suit game and am only making a rabbit for myself. I only need a partial though because I'll be wearing clothes that go with my fursona.

>>9161795
I know it sounds like a no duh sort of thing, but I think the "seeing through overly large tear ducts" route they went with really works for rabbits and will let you have better eyes.

>>9161786
Keep in mind they are not a lot of material options for scales. There are a lot of cast latex/rubber ones that cant really be painted and have ugly seams, painted fabric like artslave's, or a combination of hard resin and fur like crystumes. Has to cover the neck/ jaw seams

>>9161796

Yeah, the eyes are one of my big concerns. I don't want to look like bugs bunny, as many of the rabbit cosplays seem to. Head shape is super big too but I have real rabbits in my house for reference.

Not suits, but fursonas in general.

One character was a shark girl named Mayhem, and people went ape and made sharktits fursonas all the time. I believe it was back in '11 or so.

>>9161841

Yeah, I guess. Sharks have sexy teeth too. But damn, iguanas and gators are much better non-mammals.

>Furries wouldn't have such a bad rep if the good stories outweighed the awful ones.
I think part of the problem is that we have a generation of internet folks that have already decided that furries are the worst thing to come out of humanity. The difference in attitude between only slightly younger and older con goers is STAGGERING, even if their actual experience with furries is comparable.

>>9161175

>nyone who spends alot of time on their costumes and is good at it isn't going to risk being banned from the con for life or jailtime for stupid shit.

>>9161229
Fursuit cosplays are actually pretty common. Even if there's a bigger focus on creating your own character, you'll often see animal characters from anime/games/comics. Renamon, Lucario, that rabbit from Summer Wars, Okami, etc, are all relatively common subjects of fursuits.

>>9161419
Bronies are on a whole different level, really. Most furries are very passionate about not getting involved with that, hence why they have their own cons.
On top of that most bronies don't self-identify as furries either

I thought our stupid little town steampunk festival would have gotten away from them.

No. They were there...

I wouldn't go to a convention just for furry fandom, but I've made an Undertale mascot suit and I can now appreciate the work that goes into making a fursuit. If I see one around I'll chat them up and ask about construction, the character etc. Haven't met a cringelord furry yet so in my opinion they're nice people.

>>9161492

I can't believe people are getting so legit mad over this? Like it's just fucking fursuits, they're just costumes.
When did people suddenly start actually caring about "DA RULES"?

People were pissed when they couldn't make vendetta threads anymore but as soon as people wanna talk about a different kind of con with legitimate costumes it's fucking crime of crimes.
It's like they're sharing hardcore furry porn or even fursuit ref images, it's appreciating and sharing tips on COSTUMES.

Not the other suiter anon but I'm a suiter too and I guess the answer is...yes and no?

A MAJORITY of people I know are literally just wearing an animal suit and having fun dressing up. It's fun to just be a stupid fun character you've made and most people like it.
A lot of suiters have a rule of "don't break the magic" so they ACT like that animal, especially around kids so as to not ruin their fun but I rarely meet people who are REALLY like that.

There are a few scattered here and there but I always look at it like the people in cosplay who are "fiction kin"? and think they ARE that character?

>>9162295
Maybe some day we can legitimately talk about fursuits as costumes with no drama...or at least very minimal

One thing i find ironic is how furry is judged on it's rule 34,when other fandoms make rule 34. Like at one anime con i saw a vendor selling hentai in plain site in the con and having it on display. And one time i found rule 34 of LOTR,without even looking for it. I wish fursuiters would get more respect. Cause it seems original characters aren't noticed as much as characters from movies and such.

>>9162422
Aside from things furries have adopted, there isn;t much in the way of furry films, furry series, etc.

About the best they produce is comics, and most of those are one shots and with the advent of the patron model, they are often locked behind paywalls. So theres not many big furry webcomics about any more.

Plus they can get really arsey over who 'owns' particular characters. Best thing the furries can do is have a big "open" database of characters anyone can use in comics, etc. Maybe even get people together to do some animations...

Something like that would make them a lot more respectable.

That's why when they go out to parks and junk all the normies want pictures of their kids next to them. Sometimes they even think they're working and were hired to walk around and entertain or promote something. If they knew anything about them as a "culture" they probably would call the cops. To be fair though a lot of them do only suit for fun and don't hump each other like sexually crazed psychos at every opportunity.

I really love the realistic costumes, and if i was going to have a fursuit pursuit it'd be one of those.

I've heard they have some kind of cooling system (which is why a lot of them are so bulky i think?) but i think wearing one at a con would legitimately kill me, getting too hot makes me physically ill and cons can get like that even with a light outfit... wearing an inch of polyester, foam and padding... yikes.

I've noticed that as well. Like someone at a con thought i'm a highschool mascot,and i'm like, do you even? I graduated highschool a long time ago. I have even noticed when i wear furry shirts in public,many seem to turn their heads and such,and seems many don't seem to notice it as furry characters.

I've noticed the furry fandom appears to be mostly male, is it really that gender skewed or do most of the girls hang out in different places to the guys because of creeps and weirdoes.

I'd guess a con would give a more accurate gender ratio than a website.

Why are furries so fucking annoying with their shit?
Always wanting to excuse their sick obsession with animals
Always the "oh but I'm not like Those furries tho" bullshit

Fuck off nobody loves you that's why you have to make a man size sparkle dog to cuddle up because not even your mother wants to touch you.
