I'm gonna try to really get done my Pikachu masot costume for Kumoricon and I found it was difficult to find any good references for fursuiting and everything else.
Panda-Chan's thread a while back, it had some good links to help out anyone else who is going to be in a fursuit or may decide to.

All of these sites are great! They vary from how to make a battery-operated fan and how to mount it in a fursuit head. And how to make foam heads, different methods on how to make them.
Very neat ideas on how to make toon eyes for a head. A chock load of information one may need to know for cosplaying a furry creature!
Also, I'll be posting my Pikachu Suit progress in this thread ^^
Day one of actual working on:
I'm in school right now, but already I have plans. I've drawn and done mini-Pikachu dolls on how to construct a larger idea.
Yes...I will update later!
