I've decided I'd like to learn how to make digitigrade legs for some of my suits over the summer, and to do so, I've chosen to make a set of faun legs for a ren fest in the fall that I'll be attending.
However, I'm somewhat unsure of how much fur I'll need.
I'm fairly small (5'1, average build), and when I made my last fullsuit, she only took three yards of fur for her head, hands, body, feet, and tail. She wasn't digitigrade however.
Do you guys think I could get by with just a yard of fur? I don't really wanna buy more than I'll have to, especially since my storage space is extremely small, but I'm not sure how much of a difference the padding will make with the amount of fur used.
Also, I'd just like opinions on this, grey or brown faun?
He'll have some black markings as well, but I cannot decide between the two undercoat colors
