How do I decide between a two piece and one piece outer body?
Will your character be a one piece (a jumpsuit style) or a two piece (fur shirt and fur pants)?
A jumpsuit can be convenient because there are fewer pieces to keep track of. A jumpsuit also eliminates any visible “join” at the waist.
A two piece is the most adjustable and can be easily adjusted to accommodate performers of different heights. With most two-piece mascots, the fur bottom is worn with suspenders that can be adjusted to position the crotch of the mascot pants under the performer’s crotch, so the sizing can be more adjustable than with a jumpsuit.
