Thanks, but that has not yet been decided. I came up with a name for him, Ronaldo the tauntaun.

Does wearing just a tail and/or ears make you a fursuiter? I wouldn't have thought it'd be called that myself.

Pics of otter tail plz! kthxbye

I think tail and ears are like a beginners fursuit.  :P

Faux fur is better for these kinds of things because they don't go through the same process, of breaking down, that real fur does. And plus, you can get some fun textures and colors with faux fur.

And it's not pronounced like "fox" like I've seen some people do. <.<

Although that reminds me of a looooong time ago when I played around on Furcadia, I saw someone that made a fox character with the name "Faux Pas" and I thought it was amusing 'cause if you pronounce it as if it were English, it'd be like "fox paws." :3

Here's a place where you can buy pre-made and lightly used fursuits: http://www.furbid.ws/cgi-bin/auction/itemlist.pl?category=Costuming%20-%20General%20Audience

Some day I plan on having one made of one of my characters because kids seem to really like them. I would love to walk around and entertain some kids.
