Panda made by Matrices! MAKE OFFER! by Matrices

Panda made by Matrices! MAKE OFFER!

Matrices

You are looking at a complete Panda costume designed and created by Matrices!

This panda is a cartoon representation of the A. fulgens species of animal, also known as a Lesser Panda or a Red Panda -- but this one isn't red! A handsome combination of teal, plum, midnight blue, grey and white make this panda a special sight to be seen!

As an artist-designed creation, this is a piece of wearable art! So many details have been lovingly included to create this unique and adorable character. And guess what? UP FOR ADOPTION! When you adopt and take this panda home, you are also getting the opportunity to name and use this panda as your own personal character.

It is not often that I list a costume for public sale. I do not create custom client-designed fursuit heads, so this is a rare opportunity you have to take home a piece of my costume art. If you admire my work and want to get your hands on a full costume I have created, now is the time to send your offer!

To send a formal offer in USD, please EMAIL ME at sara@matrices.net

This costume is completely new and has not been taken to any events yet, and it has only been worn briefly for photos.

Some features and inclusions with this costume:

  • A digital reference sheet which can be updated with the new chosen name of your panda. And a series of cute digital headshots that were used in planning the expression of the character.
  • The lovingly handcrafted fully-washable costume headpiece. Lined completely on the interior. The eyelids are wired so they can adjust to a desired expression. The nose is soft, squishable sewn lycra. A sewn minky tongue. The only hard parts on the head include the eye plastic, thin nylon whiskers, and tiny sculpted teeth. There is light airbrushing to blend the facial features and markings to match the art, special care was taken to maintain softness and texture of the faux fur.
  • Optional ear tufts! Red Pandas have variations, and can be quite tufty or not very tufty in their ears, in this case YOU DECIDE! Right now there are longer hairs that can be styled into a tuft, but if you want a deliberate tuft at the bottom of each ear I would be happy to include that feature at your discretion before costume is delivered. (If no preference is mentioned it will be delivered as-is)
  • The head interior is hollow, including the muzzle. Ear vents, large mouth vent, and a roomy interior make this a mask that anyone can wear, even with glasses, big hair, piercings, and so on.
  • Comfortable bodysuit with 3 fully adjustable and removable body pads, an inside pocket, side-chest zipper, and finished neckline (see measurements below). It is tailored to change the human form and make the wearer's body a more animalistic shape by means of a lengthened body and shortened appearance to the legs. The legs are Plantigrade, meaning the animal locomotion appears to have the whole foot flat on the ground as it walks, just like actual Red Pandas.
  • Body padding is three pieces. A rump pad, worn behind the butt/thighs to pad out the booty. Two thigh pads to fill out the front if worn by a thin person. The pads are fully adjustable by adding/removing the stuffing via zippers. So the wearer can customize how thickly padded the character is, and chubby or thin people can both be able to enjoy wearing this costume.
  • A comfortable set of handpaws with furred palms, built-in padded fingertips, and vinyl claws.
  • A set of adorable, fully washable, detailed footpaws, with furred soles, vinyl claws, EVA foam inner-sole, fully lined with zipper-access. These footpaws will have the liner custom built to the wearer's shoe size, or if shoes are provided by the buyer I can build the liner to fit shoes given.
  • Included is a metal tin featuring a red panda and endangered animal motif, containing a dark blue lycra balaclava (to wear under the costume head), replacement whiskers, and anything else I might find useful to include for you.
  • One very large panda tail that zips onto the body, entirely soft and adjustable with a string to set the curve of the tail (so it can be set to be a floor dragger OR hang above the ground, if desired). A separate shaped pillow pads out the tail interior which has a zipper to adjust the stuffing and is removable for easy washing of the tail.
  • There is also a zip-on belt loop "cap" for the tail, so the tail can be removed from the body and worn as a partial costume with clothing.
  • In addition to the shoe size/shoe-provided option for the footpaws, The buyer will be asked their sleeve length and leg cuff length. These will be the only items tailored complimentary to fit the buyer's leg/arm measurements. Any other tailoring is handled as a separate project, not included in this purchase, and is subject to availability.

Payment is expected via Paypal.com or Square.com/Cash I can also accept other forms of payment, but please ask when making your offer.

Do not place a formal offer if you do not intend to or are unable or not prepared to pay. I cannot do a hold or payment plan, since it is unfair to the other potential buyers who are following the conditions

This costume will be delivered only after payment is received. I do need a few measurements -- your shoe size or confirmation if you are sending me shoes, arm length, and another measurement to determine leg length. (I will contact the high offer buyer on how to measure) The work done to make the footpaw liner will take a few days to be created, please allow 7 (seven) days for those alterations after I receive your measurements. If these measurements are not received in a timely fashion I will substitute a generic-sized liner that fits up to a mens size 11 shoe size and leave the arm and leg length as-is and you will be able to trim it to fit yourself.

    I absolutely loved seeing your pictures on twitter of this critter. The final outcome is absolutely adorable! You can definitely tell just from the shape of the head and body that it's a red panda.
    I hope it finds a lovely home. <3

    Gosh I love your suits and have since I joined the fandom back in 2000 (perhaps a year or so after) it has always been my dream to get one of your suits. I wish I was in a position to make an offer on this one, if is so cute!
