I finally took the big step today when I went and bought some very lovely shiny fabric today. By the time AC '08 rolls around, I plan to have a full flamedramon costume ready to wear, loudly and proudly.

The fabric isnt exactly fur, but it's unlike any fabric I've seen before. To highlight the animated nature of Flamedramon, I decided to go with a metalic shine, and am going to try to make it nicely skin tight, because I don't think it would look sleek enough as a loose fabric. Luckily, I have the general build of a Flamedramon, so I don't have to worry about various pitfals (beer belly flamedramon, for example)

I haven't decided what to make the armor out of yet, though, so I am open to any suggestions.
