Fursuit Thread V2 OPEN (New Poll)

This isn't exactly fursuit related but
Is there any topic where I can just talk about furry stuff in general? Like art and characters?

This isn’t furry related but I can’t find any other topic-
What’s a good app for iPads to use for drawing?
It has to be able to import a picture, as I’m better at traditional drawing.
So an art app that can trace over pictures?
Also, would any of you buy my art?
My instagram is mapletoffee. Thanks!

I'm not sure if it's on IPad, but ibisPaint X works like a charm for me! It's free, but comes with the limitations on brushes which you'd have to purchase or just watch an add to unlock them for a certain amout of time! You can import pictures for free too! It also records your screen as you draw and you can watch it back like a speedpaint later and/or download the video for free!

I have an android so I'm not sure if Apple has it or not! I'm so sorry if it doesn't!

Anyone have any tips or tutorials for making fursuit 'hair'?
Most of what I see are just flat sheets up fur that don't look that great to me so I wondered if there were other methods.
Namely to make something resembling a sort of mane for the hyena I'm making.

Fave thing about the Fandom: Fursuits tbh. And going to cons to see my friends ^u^

A little more about me.
Fursona Name PinG!
Specie Monster (never ever call me a dutch angel dragon, I'm tired of that at this point!)
How Many Cons Attended going to my 7th in about a month :> (pretty sure I'm not allowed to say which con as it's giving out location, though I could be wrong)
How many fursuits do I own? Currently 3, all fullsuits, but by the end of 2019 I'll have 11 total suits, some are in the process of being made by others, while some are being made by me!

Flokati from fursuitsupplies.com is really nice and flowy like hair.
Maine Coon from mendels.com is also really long and flowy.
Gorilla from fabric.com is OK. Its very flowy, but not the best.

When making the mane for your hyena, sew the fur in a way so it's facing the wrong direction (i.e. facing up instead if going with the flow of the rest of the fur). This will also give the fur a more poofed up look to it.
Hope this helps!

Those would be great if I didn't need them in a plum color. And I meant more how to make a 'hair poof' or flop.
I might just be stuck with using the natural length of the fur as a very short mane

I am a furry myself. In history I am doing a project about the Furry Fandom impacts on society. This research paper will include the history of the furry fandom as well as sources including fursuit makers, artists, and furs that own a suit. I am also looking to eventually ask some more well known furries about their opinion on the Furry Fandom. I'm looking to contact the owner of Telephone (Dutch Angel Dragon creator. Cannot say her name on CS) to ask her opinion.

I am also asking anyone here who wants to help me out. Please, tell me below. What are your thoughts on the Furry Fandoms impact on society? What is a furry to you? What made you become a furry?

Some of these responses will be used as primary sources from other furries in my research paper. Please try to be as clean as possible? As I am in High School.

The deadline for the rough draft of this research paper is the 23rd of March. So please try to get responses in before then?

Thank you very much for considering. I hope I can get some opinions here.
