How to Make Kawaii Fox Hideout Art in Path of Exile
Kawaii Fox is one of the most fun things you can put on your hideout floor. In this guide you will see exactly how Kawaii Fox was rebuilt from real Path of Exile decorations, which decorations it uses, and how to make the same art in your own hideout in a few minutes.
Original
In gameA kawaii fox with an oversized head and a fluffy white-tipped tail. Cute animal art like this relies on round shapes and big eyes, both of which come through clearly in decorations.
The original and the in-game version
Drag the slider to compare the original image with the version rebuilt from Path of Exile decorations. Every piece on the right is a real decoration at its real in-game size, position and rotation.
Why Kawaii Fox works so well as hideout art
Cute animal art uses round shapes, big eyes and soft flat colours, which decorations reproduce cleanly. The outline keeps the silhouette readable and the eyes become small dark clusters.
This Kawaii Fox uses 701 decorations of 7 types, with Dead Oriath Soldier Pieces doing most of the work. That fits inside Path of Exile's 750-decoration hideout limit, so the complete artwork imports in one go.

Tips for the best Kawaii Fox

- Simple poses with the whole body visible look best on the hideout floor.
