This year's irresponsible purchase at a convention, a robo kobold from @rubberpaws.bsky.social and @garudaworkshop.bsky.social #FursuitFriday
A robotic kobold helmet, a collaboration from Gardua workshops at Rubberpaws.
This one was sold as slightly defective as it smells faintly or broccoli under direct sunlight

Funny you should mention that...

This one is fursuit proportioned - large for a rubber head. But each one is as large as I make it. As large as the person commissioning chooses.

Did you know, I can be commissioned to make fursuit style rubber heads? Cast polyfoam base, covered in sheet rubber, both inside and outside. Laser-cut micro-perforated irises for excellent vision. Prices around the upper end of fursuit head prices.

It irks me greatly that after I went to great lengths to get this to loop perfectly, it doesn't upon uploading. Oh well :P

There's a big pile of inflatable black footpaws, all ready to go. Buy here: www.rubberpaws.co.uk/product/blac... I will contact you after ordering to confirm your address. They'll be posted to you within the week.

There's a couple more up for grabs, now. Posted to X for once, as there are certain people who insist this is the only way they'll ever find out in time to get a pair.

I have also had them described as "Weirdly practical"

Rubberpaws @rubberpaws.bsky.social · 26/06/2026
They fit foot length up to 36cm long and 21cm wide. That's technically EU56 ;) There is a huge space inside, but they are patterned to inflate inward, snugly hugging your feet. You put them on deflated then pump em up.

Four more pairs of these "soo comfy" paws available to buy. www.rubberpaws.co.uk/product/blac... Paws will be posted off next week.

Anyone in the UK want some free* sheet rubber scraps? (*just cost of postage) Pieces range from 10cm across to 50cm across. Ideal for practicing rubber-work, repairs, making small things or decals. Just message me here or send a chat request... I've got kilos of off-cuts at this point.

I'm pretty impressed the feet have held up so well. Doing raw latex colours is always a crap shoot - they just want to turn brown after a few years. You've taken excellent care of them :)

..., gimme a message if your interested in other shades of latex, I have a bunch of rolls ready to go, and I'll do colors to order, provided there's no extra decals.

This was a post saying that there were some foot paws up for sale... but they went frighteningly fast... However, since it looks like I'm immediately turning tail and getting back to making more...

I do expect to see a new appreciation emerge for how long decent rubber gear lasts by contrast. But I think the market absolutely wants the chance to rock hard on a budget, then flame out a couple years later as big shiny disposable critter.

Rubberpaws @rubberpaws.bsky.social · 02/02/2026
It's definitely a whole different thing. Historically, silicone and vinyl have a couple years in them before they crap out. Maybe we will see that with this new gen of stuff, maybe not. But you can still have a hell of a lot of fun in those years... and the price is right...

Rubberpaws @rubberpaws.bsky.social · 02/02/2026
It leaves me the same place I've always been - I'm just a mammal that makes stuff. Ill make fursuits, rubber hoods, inflatable gear, cosplay armor, prosthetics, larp kit... whatever you want really. I'll be looking for whats not being made and making it. And the other stuff? Go buy that too :)

Rubberpaws @rubberpaws.bsky.social · 02/02/2026
And the result is amazing stuff that simply didn’t exist till the last couple years. At a price that individuals like myself can't compete with. Heck I've tried making silicone gear, that stuff is unforgiving. The skill of these makers should be celebrated. But where does that leave me? ...

Rubberpaws @rubberpaws.bsky.social · 02/02/2026
It’s exiting times for people who love to be shiny critters, isn’t it? There's a huge number of far east workshops making fantastic silicone, vinyl and latex gear. It really is a net positive that the community has grown to the extent that a company can begin to make these economies of scale...

I do keep thinking about doing some dalmatian spot paws. But its the white latex I fear. It's just so easy to mark, and when you are doing decals, your all over the latex for days.

Rubberpaws @rubberpaws.bsky.social · 30/01/2026
I absolutely love how these look and their amazing fun, but wow, it took so long to make these. Hence the price One day I'd love to do an entire inflatable tiger suit. Maybe when Ive forgotten how long stripes take ;)

These have now sold out. Did I head out for the day and accidentally leave back-orders on? Maybe... Will I be spending the rest of the month making paws to honor those orders? Probably :)

I have two pairs of bopper footpaws available to BUY. No auctions this time, I think I have the price point and that is £525. www.rubberpaws.co.uk/product/blac... For the black and.. www.rubberpaws.co.uk/product/blac... For the black and white.

I need 2 meters.. Their normal minimum order is 5 meters... However, for this one color its 7 meters... Only it must be 10 meters... for reasons... I'll use Radical Rubbers rust red. Better quality rubber anyhow.

Wow, I just can't compete with Supatex's marketing genius. I guess I'll have to buy... nothing. I've gone off the whole idea. You get nothing sir, good day :P

Would be so much fun to make stuff like this. It's got a different vibe to a lot of existing suits.

White latex is such a nightmare. It stains in contact with so many things. But you never know. If people are prepared to cover the amount of work these things take to make, all kinds of designs are possible.

I should probably mention that this long, laborious process was done by @sagelonestar.bsky.social - who did a fantastic job :)

Rubberpaws @rubberpaws.bsky.social · 05/09/2025
I use Bostik 3851 It's closest to what you get for bike tires. I buy it in 5L cans at £72 a shot. Liquid latex will not glue well at all to sheet latex. Sheet latex has been through a lot of processes to make it impermeable.

Rubberpaws @rubberpaws.bsky.social · 05/09/2025
Every spot has laser cut and then glued by hand. The glue is applied to both surfaces, left to dry then pressed together. The glued area must overlap the spot so it won't peel off once inflated. But glue is ugly, so the dried excess around every single spot is individually cleaned. So. Much. work.
