Step 10Sew him a fur suit
Time to start up the sewing machine!
I'm not a very good seamstress so there is likely a much better way to do this part.
Here's how we did it:
For the upper body, we used an old jacket as the base and covered it in fun fur. Before sewing on the sleeves we padded the shoulders with wedges of upholstery foam.
Make the sleeves extra long to accommodate the arm extensions and cut slits so he can get his real hands out when he needs to hold a beer.
For the pants, I traced a pair of my boyfriend's pants onto the fun fur and enlarged them significantly.
We cut the upholstery foam and glued together three layers to give Ludo a nice padded butt and hips. With a large curved upholstery needle we stitched the foam by hand to the pants.
To hold up the pants we made suspender-like straps.
