Costumes created by Lance Ikegawa

"Originally this was for a commission that I offered for a charity auction at Eurofurence.
The buyer later worked with me to have it upgraded to a full suit."

"I'm really happy with the result: subtle musclesuit, full NFT and I managed to capture the expression as-described by the commissioner." -Lance Ikegawa

This costume appears to have present at Eurofurence 20.

This costume was made with the assistance of " L. Eklund"

Image 1: "Here is the cheetah partial being modeled in a renfaire dress
(but the costume would work as well in male clothing)."

Image 2: I made this a few years ago as an experiment: I wanted to make a partial that could be as comfortable as possible, especially for dances, etc. The head, paws and tail are made of antron fleece and reticulated foam. The materials breathe very well, so heat should be as minimal as possible. With these materials, washing should be a breeze.

Haha, the pictures are looking at eachother!
He is an "Anonymous Fox", thus, the name. Apparently he has been worn by a few different people.

He was won from the Eurofurence 16 auction.
"Anonyfox
...existiert nicht.

Es muss nicht jedes Mal tatsächlich die gleiche Person den Suit tragen.
Vieleicht ist es immer der Gleiche, vieleicht nicht.
Wer diesen Suit trägt ist zwar kein Geheimniss, soll aber bewusst nicht allgemein bekannt sein.
Bekannt ist jedenfalls, daß auch mindestens einer der unterlegenen Bieter der damaligen Auktion diesen Suit tragen darf.
Ob das aber auch tatsächlich passiert und ann... müsst ihr selber heraus finden.

Anonyfox ist ein Partial Suit von Lance Ikegawa und wurde auf der Auktion der Eurofurence 16 zu Gunsten eines Guten Zweckes ersteigert.
Seither wurden kleinere Verbesserungen und Reparaturen durchgeführt. Immerhin war er ja nie für die Maße einer bestimmten Person angefertigt worden
Der Gesichtsausdruck und das Fell sind einfach großartig! :)
Danach ging es daran dieses Gesicht mit Leben zu füllen.
Ich dokumentiere hier die durchgeführten Änderungen möglichst so, daß man Anregungen für eigene Fursuits und Props bekommen kann.
Dabei versuche ich darauf einzugehen, was an Konstruktionen aus eigener Erfahrung gut oder weniger gut funktioniert.

Reparaturen Lycra am Rechten Arm (Innensuit bei Teilsuits, Pro und Contra zu Lycra) (später an anderen Stellen der Naht wiederholt)
Verbesserungen
Gummizug für Arme (Oben-Halten der Arme, Gummiführung Brust vs. Rücken)
TODO: Druckstelle an Kopf (Schneiden und Schleifen von festem Schaumstoff, keine Angst vor Modifikationen)
TODO: Hand aus langem Arm ohne Hilfe rein und raus bekommen (die Praxis mit den Pfoten, eine Variante)
TODO: Angleichung der Augen (Tearduct-Vision in der Praxis, Sichtfeld ist wichtig)"

Google Translate: "Anonyfox

...does not exist.
It doesn't have to be the same person actually wearing the suit every time.
Maybe it's always the same, maybe not.
It's not a secret who wears this suit, but it shouldn't be public knowledge.
In any case, it is known that at least one of the losing bidders at the auction at the time was allowed to wear this suit.
But whether that actually happens... you have to find out for yourself.

Anonyfox is a partial suit by Lance Ikegawa and was bought at the Eurofurence 16 auction for a good cause.
Since then, minor improvements and repairs have been made. After all, it had never been made to fit a specific person's measurements.
The facial expression and fur are just gorgeous! :)
Then it was time to fill this face with life.
I'll document the changes made here so that you can get suggestions for your own fursuits and props.
In doing so, I try to address what constructions work well or less well from my own experience.


Repairs Lycra on the right arm (inner suit in part suits, pros and cons of lycra) (repeated later at other places of the seam)
Improvements
Elasticated arms (hold arms up, elasticated chest vs. back)
TODO: Pressure point on head (cutting and grinding solid foam, don't be afraid of modifications)
TODO: Getting a hand in and out of a long arm without help (the practice with the paws, a variant)
TODO: Alignment of the eyes (tearduct vision in practice, field of view is important)"

Note from Lance Ikegawa from photo source:
"I wanted to try something more cute than realistic. I'm pretty happy with how he/she turned out (depending on the eye lids, this character can be more masculine or feminine). This is a partial (head, tail, paws) that will hopefully be auctioned off at Eurofurence 16 in a couple of days."

I may be speculating, but I believe the owner is named "Suranfox".
