If you’re making your own therian mask, I recommend starting with something simple like cardboard, or if accessible, a cat mask base (which you can buy online). With basic materials like hot glue, scissors, an X-Acto knife, and cardboard, you can begin experimenting.
Cardboard is especially great because it's free and disposable. If you mess up, there’s no big loss. It lets you practice the foundational techniques without spending a lot of money. You can get really creative with it and, if you end up liking what you make, then invest in more advanced materials later. There are a lot of tutorials online—I’ve even made some myself. That’s actually how I got my start in this community: making a mask tutorial out of cardboard.

I need a video to do things or it looks bad lol. I'm a therian and my theriotype is a fox. I only have one mask and I left it at my bffs house, which is rigged. Lol. Anywho,...... I'm so awkward😭 anyways I am obsessed with foxes and cats and I can't choose which one should be my theriotype. I have a lot of things about cats and foxes. I stay up all night, I love boxes (idk why), I love tight spots, I hear really well, I'm playfull, I want to hunt a lot. Idk lololol
