Stop being so creative! I get creative urges when I see people posting projects on here and I don't have what I need to let it out!

lol.
But seriously, great work. ^_^

Haha, thank you! You should go on a shopping spree for the materials, then you can go crazy! :D

Speaking of, I gotta head to JoAnn's for one last time for the eye materials. Or at least the see-through fabric. My local Wal-Mart is 'going green' so there isn't a fabric section. Fail. -_-

Oh goodness.
I wish I could go on a shopping spree, but alas...no money.
I have $70 saved up but that's for my pills, then next week I get $35 (I get that amount every week for working for my dad) and $10 of that has to be added to what I have already to have the full amount for pills. The other $25 will start my saving for my parents' birthday presents (both their birthdays are in October, they both will have a present and a card each) and to buy clothes from Hot Topic for my Halloween costume.
Then after that, I've got to start saving for getting the rest of the things I need for a ferret and the ferret itself ($327, most expensive things being the ferret and the habitat).
So needless to say, I won't have money for crafts to soon, not until maybe January if I get into a work-study program at college.

Well hopefully that all goes well, and one day you can get to expressing yourself! :3

Thanks!~ Once it's done, I plan on showing it off in an action shot, haha. Like headbanging or something!! But I gotta get the gloves and tail after the head. I'm going for partial. ;) I even bought a Protest The Hero hoodie for the costume! :D

UPDATE

So here's the whole partial together, even the apparel.

I've got the head (duh), the trinket hanging from my ear, the bandana, chain necklace, 30 Seconds To Mars shirt, Protest The Hero hoodie, Duct tape rock belt, and blue jeans. (That hoodie was the reason I didn't have this up sooner. Canada is so faaaar. o_O )

So all I gotta do now is slap the hair on and apply the eyes without killing myself over my own OCD. ;)

EDIT: It would help if I attached the picture, wouldn't it? xD

you dont need a fur'd body, just go in with what you got and yourself a fursuit, without the suit!

@WingedZephyr: Good idea with the Fursuiting thread. :3 )

UPDATE:

So here's the applied eyes!!! x3

Um, details include that first, if you didn't see, I lined where the eyes are with fur and then used a cheap salad bowl (making sure it's plastic and very flimsy, avoiding brittle) as the base of the eye. Before I cut into it, I soaked it in hot water to let it loosen up and let me get a clean cut. Then, I looked through the mask and marked where my eyesight would be best for the pupils and cut through to that, all the while consistently soaking them. I glued the see-through material on the inside of the eyes and lined the top with some vinyl for the eyelids. I used nail polish for the eye color, to make it purty lookin'. :P

Well, that's it so far. Once I apply the wig (Totally gonna wing how I'm going to do this. o_O) then I'll post the final picture to the fursuit head. :3

The method your using looks like what I need for what I was wanting to do a few years back on creating animal heads where the wearer's eyes where where the animals eyes should be.

To bad all my money now goes to bills and rent, because I would love to give it a try again.
