Halp! Looking for Amber/Orange fur for a suit.
14 years ago
So, we're getting to a point where I need to start buying fur for a suit.
Okay, so it's a partial suit. Right now, just legs, partial-mask, and probably arms, if not gloves. And I'd like to replicate/purchase the same color later if I want to finish the suit or make alterations/extra parts, etc.
But we're having a really hard time finding realisticly colored amber/burnt orange fur for a tiger.
Everything is either mascot-orange, or buff/beige, but nothing really workable for a more realistic tiger color.
Add to that, I'd LOVE for it to at least be 2-way, if not 4-way stretch.
I am looking at NFT, but obviously spending $1000 just on fur doesn't sound like a great financial decision IF I can find an alternative source/method, even if that's buying another fur color and dying it the colors I want.
But I'm reaching out to others to find out what has worked for them first.
Any ideas? Any thoughts? Any contacts you know?

Texturally it isn't so appealing, and no stretch... but it isn't too bad.
