Not quite a beginner

I have been sewing for probably 5 years now. I usually do a lot of cosplay, and make everything from trench coats to chaps, to certain wigs and such. Well i am trying to make a fursuit to go in lines with Kyo or Yuki two characters from the show. Its a cat and a mouse in case people dont watch it, which might be the case. Anyways, i have a basic idea of making the actualy outfit, i had thought of tubing a tail, out of orange felt, but when i bought the felt it just didnt work and wasnt soft at all, so i didnt think putting it all over my body would be a good idea. The character is a bright orange color, but if i cant find orange i am going to settle for Grey which is easier to find. And attempt to make the mouse costume. The only problem i am having is the fact that i dont know where to start on the head. I have never attempted heads before except once using rigid wrap and it was kidna heavy and kinda fragile, i was thinking of using like cushion foam or something, Any ideas ???

I have been costuming for several years and some of them are actually on my myspace if proof is needed, i am trying to get into "fursuiting" for lack of a better term, but i am coming to dead ends, any help would be appreciated :)
