As a beginner resin blank maker, can I ask how it is you get the apoxy (I assume) around the eyelid, and the hem of the fur, so smooth and seamless? And can you suggest any ways to give my eyes that realistic look?

Practice is how the seams are blended and references up the wazoo for the realistic look.. And practice lol. Look at a lot of various pictures and emotions and just practice practice practice.

As far as the seams, do you glue them down? Do you fold the fabric and fur under itself? Is it hot glue? Do you tuck it into a slit like taxidermists do?

There's a number of things I do depending on the suit. Honestly I'd experiment with the list you just typed and see what works best for you!

Do you mind if I ask about the nose and how you got that texture? When I sculpt my clay I can't seem to find any trick to get a texture remotely similar to that, let alone keep it through molding and casting.
And thank you so much for your feedback and help, I really appreciate it! I'm just now reaching out to people who do what I want to do, and the support has been so inviting and welcoming! I can't wait to be among your ranks. *u*

I'll hand sculpt it into the clay sculpt then let the silicone capture the rest of the detail :3

Jeez! So you do that coarse texture detail by hand? No tools or anything? That blows my mind! n @

This is truly amazing and unique! I've never seen any glow in the dark / UV markings. You did a fantastic job, and the LED eyes are just - wow! A very unique color mixture of purple and yellow / green. How awesome!
And the pelt color is beautiful.
Great job, Sharpe!
