Solutions to representing yourself as an animal.
I am interested in the many costume based ways to present yourself as
an animal.
So let me list the ones I have seen.
Fursuit, T-Shirt, Badge, knit-cap, Lion King stage craft versions,
Cats stage craft versions, ears and tail pieces, ears alone, my own
poor attempt using Halloween costuming; a face piece that kept falling
off and ears that did the same, facepaint.

So I am fascinated by other solutions.
And each solution is not only a representation, it is one done on the
terms of the person using it. These maybe financial, or other
criterion. I do not think I will ever go fursuit. I want some facial
expression, and the expense and reported heat and vision problems are
a turn off. Some of the unusual ones I have seen at the Skiltaires
have been a canine that can do 4 paws on the ground, a wildly strange
headed white canine, and that dragon I saw last Saturday. He was
black, had complete mobility of his body, and had a head piece that
was almost as mobile. I was as interested and impressed as I was with
the head piece of that 4 on the floor dude (which had to be an
upgrade). And there was a scaly dude that had the bottom half of his
costume jaw attached to his real jaw. Also interesting from a
potential expression point.

So have I missed any?
In anycase I am likely to post here to update this when I see
something more.

Well, there's also classic stage makeup techniques (representing 3-D
structures as 2-D makeup) and surgical techniques (like the Catman). Other
than those, I think you've got it covered.

Yours in completion,

Actually, while respecting other people's solutions, I do not want to
do fursuiting.
No facial expression.
But thanks.
I am looking for a solution, and am fascinated by the non-standard
solutions I have been finding.
