💯 do you do DMX operation at all??

nitroshep.bsky.social•47 days ago

No DMX, yet, but there has been some discussion in the past to be part of the dance floor DMX universe by sending wireless signals to me. Currently my fursuit head sends basic commands to sync up animations and lighting modes

That’s precisely what I was thinking lmaooooo. 🎯

This the kinda things I would do 😅

Fun projects to be unique ☺️

It's always fun reading about how people do their suits. Mix that with performances and woah!
I'd imagine it'd get too warm in a full body suit for me. Hopefully I can get a pet suit soon.
Or even a kigu! 🐾

I get so many questions when the suit lights up. It’s so well hidden it just looks like any other fursuit. It’s a unique feature of my suit, but everyone has something unique about their character. For the body suit I wear a cooling vest for comfort in warmer areas. I’d recommend that

nathyfloofy.bsky.social•47 days ago

Definitely noted. The lights in the photos are so vibey. I'm gonna look at the cooling vest. Thanks for the info 🐾🐾🐾

Welcome and thank you!

My antlers have been so delicate I dunno how you keep it all working!

I rarely have any issues. Over 35 cons it’s all held up very well. Lots of waterproofing and good connections. The harness has floating led strips to prevent bending breakage

I’m always mind blown when I see your harness and work up close. I’ve been doing some similar work as well on my side but holy crow you have it so much more refined. I’m a pro at the electronics side, but the actual building/sewing/design side of the physical integration work is where I’m weak.

Aw! Really appreciate hearing that! I was great at electronics in high school but only know circuit basics. A lot of this is pre-made boards + extra components. Being in the trades, material assembly comes naturally, but also a perfectionist. You certainly have the potential to make something cool!

The metal detector be crying reading this

nitroshep.bsky.social•47 days ago

I set off the FC metal detectors every time LOL

I lit up the harness to walk through and security just looked at me and said >> 🙄… ok.. go
