Can you make me a fursuit?
你能爲我做一件獸裝嗎？
NO. I do not offer fursuit commissions, I am sorry.
I am not professional enough and my limited time does not allow me taking
commissions like that. I can be lucky if I find the time to make my own fursuits.
So please don't ask me how much I would take for one, because I don't.
不能。我不提供獸裝委託，抱歉。我不夠專業而且我有限的時間不允許我承擔那樣的委託。運氣好的話我可能有時間做自己的獸裝。所以不要問我給多少錢我才做，因爲我不做。
How much does a fursuit cost?
做一件獸裝要花多少錢？
It mainly depends on what fur you choose. Do not use very cheap fur! You will
regret it afterwards if it looks cheap or some parts become hairless after
brushing. For my suits I spent between 300,- and 500,- EUR. Good long haired fur
costs between 30,- and 60,- EUR / meter.
這主要取決於你選用何種毛毛材料。不要用太便宜的！如果它看起來很差或者刷洗之後毛很稀少，那你會後悔的！對於我的獸裝來説我通常花300到500歐元。好的長毛材料大約每米30到60歐元。
How long does it take to make one?
做一件獸裝要多長時間？
It took me between 4 and 12 weeks to finish a fursuit, depending on how much
time I was able to spend working on it. If you're quick and skilled, you can
have finished it within a month. Usually it's hard to find all material you need
at the same time, so it sometimes just takes a while until you can continue.
我大約用了4到12週，這取決於我能在上面花多少時間。如果你比較嫺熟，你能在一個月之内完成。通常一時間很難找齊所有材料，所以有時需要暫停一段時間。
What material to use for the head - foam or wire?
頭部我應該用什麽材料？泡棉還是金屬網？
It depends on what it easier to make for you. Check out making of websites to
get an impression what might be better for you. Wire heads are more for
technicially skilled people, foam heads more for artistic people. Foam heads are
usually lighter, but also hotter inside. Wire heads are more stable.
這取決於哪一種能讓你製作起來更簡單。在網上找找看哪一種更適合你。金屬網更適合有技術性的人，泡棉更適合有藝術性的人。泡棉制的頭會更輕，但裏面會很熱。金屬網更可靠。
Do I need a fan?
我需要風扇嗎？
You do not necessariliy need one, but it makes fursuiting much more comfortable.
You will be able to stay in suit longer if you have a good ventilation. If you're
using plastic eyes, a fan can also prevent them from fogging when it's hot.
你不一定非得安一個，但有風扇能使穿著獸裝更加舒適。如果通風良好你就能在獸裝里待的時間長一點。如果你用的塑料眼睛，風扇能防止熱的時候上邊起霧。
Where to install the fan?
在哪裏安
裝風扇？
Best place is in the muzzle/nose. Some people also have additional fans in the
ears. I prefer the fan blowing the heat (and humidity) out of your mouth (not
blowing air inside). You can either blow out the air through the mouth or the
nose.
最好的地方是在鼻子里。有人也在耳朵里額外裝了風扇。我更喜歡讓風扇把熱氣和潮氣吹出去（而不是把空氣吹進來）。從鼻子里把空氣吹出去會更容易一些。
I want animatronics!
我想要特殊效果！
Be aware that animatronics like moving ears, showing teeth, wagging tails etc.
are not that simple to make, and if this is your first suit, you maybe first
should do a simple one. Tioh did a very nice website about animatronics in
fursuits (only German so far, sorry). However, making a moving jaw (to open your
mouth) is quite simple.
要知道像動耳朵、齜牙咧嘴、搖尾巴這樣的特效是不太容易辦到的。而且如果這是你第一套獸裝，或許你應該做一套簡單的。Tioh做了一個非常好的關於獸裝特效的網站（抱歉只有德語）。不過，一個活動下巴（來張開嘴）是很簡單的。
I want a movable jaw
我想要一個能活動的下巴
You can install it in both foam or wire heads. You need a joint (wire) to open
the mouth, and a rubber band or spring to close it again [click]. On Savoy my
joint looks like this, the jaw attached to the head like this. It's a perforated
flat wire from the home depot.
泡棉頭和金屬網頭裏都能裝。你需要一個金屬網關節來張開嘴，用橡皮筋或彈簧使它關閉。我在Savoy上的像這個樣。這是從副進修車場拿到的有孔的平金屬網。
How to make a bouncy tail?
怎樣製作一個逼真的尾巴？
If you want a tail which does not just hangs down, you need a "skeleton" for it.
This can either be foam, parts of a camping mat, or something else. Best thing
is to attach the tail construction to a belt (e.g. a kidney belt). First it has
a nice swing when you move your body, second it will not rip off that easily if
somebody pulls your tail. Remember it might get difficult to sit down with such
a tail!
如果你不想讓尾巴僅僅是垂下去的話，你需要添加一些填充物。這可以是泡棉、旅行帽的部分或其他東西。最好讓尾巴和腰帶拴在一起，一來你活動時它會優美地搖擺，二來有人拉你尾巴時不太容易掉下來。記住帶著這種尾巴可是不太容易坐下的！
What about the paws?
那獸爪呢？
Think about making 2 pairs of paws (shoes) - one for indoor, one for outdoor.
Pawpads and furred soles are beautiful, but if you walk outside with them, they
will become dirty and soon be distroyed. Some people built extra shoes (sandals)
for their fursuits to protect their paws. Use waterproof shoes for outside, e.g.
with a real shoes inside. Also see the paw section here [making of body].
考慮做兩套，一套室内的一套室外的。在室外獸腳很容易弄賘並損燬。有人用額外的鞋來保護獸腳。你可以用防水的鞋作室外用，比如裏面有一個真鞋的。
What kind of eyes shall I make?
我應該用那種眼？
There are different ways to make fursuit eyes. If you are just using plastic
mesh or stramin (you can paint it), you have the advantage that they will not
fog when it's getting hot. If you are using plastic hemispheres or sunglasses,
it looks more realistic, but it can fog (use anti-fog and install a good
ventilation). On Savoy I used plastic hemispheres and a plastic eye below (with
sunglasses as pupils).
You have a different way of view through the eyes, try what is more comfortable
for you!
有不同的製作眼的方法。如果僅僅使用紗網做的話（你能在上邊畫），有個優點是再熱它也不會起霧。如果你用的是塑料半球或太陽鏡，它會看起來更逼真，但會起霧（用防霧劑並安裝良好的通風裝置）。我在Savoy上用的是塑料半球（太陽鏡作爲瞳孔）。不同的眼睛有不同的視覺效果，試試看那個能令你更舒服！
How do you keep it clean?
如何保持清潔？
If the body is not airbrushed, doesn't have very sensitive fur or fillings/paddings
(e.g. tail), you can wash it by hand. You can also use desinfection spray or
Febreze. For keeping the head clean I always use a balaclava when I wear it. You
can also clean it using an desinfection spray. Always check that your fursuit
has the chance to dry after suiting (do not put it into a box directly after
fursuiting)!
如果身體沒有噴繪而且毛毛布不怎麽敏感的話，用手洗就行了。你也可以用噴霧器或Febreze。我用常用balaclava
巴拉克拉法[是一種面罩....]頭巾來保持頭部清潔。你也可以用噴霧器清潔。一定要確保穿著之後有機會晾乾（不要穿著之後立即裝進箱子里）！
General tips:
友情提示：
If you're trying to get good fur - either try in special stores or in winter.
Many stores do not have faux fur in summer.
如果想買到好的毛毛布的話，試試到專門的商店里購買或者在冬天買。很多商店在夏天沒有人造毛。
Make a test suit out of cheap cloth first! Nothing is more annoying than cutting
your expensive fur and then realizing - it does not fit
請先用便宜布做一套測試獸裝！沒有比剪開昂貴的毛毛布以後卻發現不合身更惱人的事情了！
Use your creativity! You can abuse almost anything for a fursuit
(e.g. Indian necklaces for claws)
發揮你的創造力！你可以在獸裝上添加幾乎所有東西！（比如在爪子上戴個印第安項鏈）
Be careful with hot glue! Putting on a foam head where the hot glue is still hot
is NO fun.
小心熱膠！膠還很熱時戴上泡棉頭可不是好玩的！
Learn how to perform/pose!
Nothing is more boring or creepy than a fursuiter who just stands there like a
zombie. Learn how to move, how to interact with people!
學會怎麽表演、擺動作！沒有比像僵屍一樣站著不動的獸人更無聊的了！要學會怎麽活動，怎麽與人反應!
Can't say it often enough - never go out in your suit alone!
Always have somebody with you who can guide you and help you in case of an
emergency
再怎麽多說也不過分——不要一個人穿獸裝出去！外出時一定要有人引導你並且緊急情況下能幫助你！
Avoid drunken people! (carnival can be dangerous)
避開醉酒者！（狂歡節很危險）
If you're fursuiting for a longer time, drink much water! Either put your head
off or use a straw. Dehydration will quickly knock you out.
如果你穿獸裝很長時間，要多喝水！拿下頭部或者用吸管！脫水能很快讓你休克！
Do not pick up children if you're fursuiting. If children are afraid of you and
cry - go away, do not try to cheer them up (it will probably make it just worse).
穿著獸裝不要抱起小孩子。如果小孩子害怕你並且哭了，不要試圖安慰他（那樣會把事情弄得更遭）。
