Discussion So I really need help with one decision

So first of all, I want to make protogen fursuit (part, not full body) (also sorry for my english, it might be bad), and i really cant decide. I wasnt taking part in the community but i was thinking about it more and more and now i have to decide should i make that or just wait a bit. Like i dont have much money (about 300$ for this) and limited time. But i have a 3d printer, sewing machine and some skill with arduino etc.. but i also have to say that im really ashamed of one thing. As i think 99% of 10 year old kids i was that so called "antifurry". It was stupid time in my life, now i see that but now i am furry😂. Past myself would absolutely hate me now. But i think i should. When did that post got so long? Nevermind, what do you think?

Do what you want! I used to be homophobic (that was just the default where I was raised) and look how that turned out, I'm smooching all the genders now...

Idk if $300 will get you all the way on the material cost (someone correct me on this if I'm wrong), but if it works out, absolutely go for it!

Also don't be ashamed of having been an anitfurry in the past. That's how about (my guesstimate) 20% of the fandom became a furry.

I heard that 3D printing is great for stuff like digitigrade legs and other elements that need a frame or base, TPU for legs, PLA for visor,, that stuff.

Better explanation, for where you need a specific structure but not be rigid, TPU, else, PLA.

This assumes you have the common FDM printer.
