those are very cool suits, did you make them or buy them and was it tricky to move around?

Thanks!

I bought the parts for the Raphael costume but customized the three-digit alien hands by painting them green and I also customized the turtle shell that came with the costume

For the Splinter costume, I bought the rat mask and added new eyebrows and a new beard, made the feet and tail, bought werewolf hands and added features to the robe to make it look like the one in the 1987 costume.

It is difficult to see through the masks, it’s hot inside and you do have to move slower than usual

Wow, that's creative, what do you think of furries, the costume process looks similar to fursuiting

…furries creep me out honestly.

Fair, that's understandable
