So... i have had a long time to ponder this... and I am still pondering. I've been pondering for so long i'm afraid i'll drown in this pond or become the next florida man. (despite being australian)

Fursuits...

I want one, I believe I have a financial backing to get a fursuit, however as a first suit buyer I am completely lost as to where to look. I have seen some people online who recommend fursuit makers and I am watching some fursuit makers because their stuff is super cool to watch. But... I have a few issues...

-I live in australia: Anything that i order from an overseas fursuit maker will likely leave me hemorraging money from paying the postage. Considering this crosses out a lot of recommended makers... this is a massive hurdle
-Indecisive about OC: I kinda brought this on myself with the amount of OC's i've made but I am tossing up between three OC's for a fursuit to be made for... so far i'm sold on Zorro the Super chicken but the other two im thinking would be fun too
-will i use it?: Of course i'd wanna use it... but I'd probably not be going about everywhere wearing it but i'd like to have it for conventions that Perth has... sometimes... in a blue moon...

The other thing i've considered is just... making it myself but I rather like working on projects like this with someone so they can teach me how to do it right. and I dunno anyone in arms reach for that... plus i dunno about getting the materials to make it. Can't exactly ask my nanna about borrowing her sewing machine just to say "I wanna make a chicken suit!".

That being said, i would love to get a fursuit. and i'd take Extremely good care of it. I will pursue this... but I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this.

I was also thinking if i also opened commissions or did some livestreaming to maybe get some funding to help pay for it if i go for a good quality overseas suiter, would that be a good idea? frankly i dunno...

Anyway thank you for seeing this journal, hope ya having an awesome day.
