Given Up With Decon Bodysuit
13 years ago
Yeah, as the title says, I've stopped in the making of my Decon fullsuit :/ The parts are just hung up in my cupboard now, but is just the foamed legs and the fur. I just don't have the time to complete this and am too worried about messing it up, to begin cutting the fur and such. I already have some parts made (paws, arms, feet, tail), but they'll just be kept for partial use rather than a fullsuit.
I'm really looking to commission someone to make it now, and whoever makes it can have the remaining fur if they'd like it, because I'll have no use for it at all once the fullsuit is made (will be around 1/2 yard of black grizzly fur from MohairBearMakingSupplies and a yard of red DF, plus quite a bit of grey DF)... I've asked around places and most people don't want to make anything other than a fullsuit or partial - and I'm looking for everything except for the head, which is a real pain :/
Anytime between now and the end of the year is fine, but it would have to be realistic style, because that's the style of the head :) and I'm willing to pay a decently high amount up front immediately, as I've been putting money aside for this, for months now :) so if you know anyone who would be interested in doing so and is a good maker, I would be grateful to know. My ideal person would be
Faruku of course, because she made my Decon head in the first place, but it looks like she's booked up for quite a while now, and I'd like to get him finished this year...
Plus, sometime during the next year, I'm gonna look into commissioning a realistic black and red wolf, and possibly a (female) doberman fursuit too ^^ that's all just ideas though, as I mostly want to get Decon finished first...

Are you willing to make and ship a duct tape dummy and the fur you have on hand to Colorado/US? Do you have reference artwork for the full character? Are you looking for a basic straight-leg bodysuit or digitigrade padded legs and other areas?
I am still looking....
It would be a digigrade, but I don't know how much shipping would be to Colorado ... But I do have a reference? http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f.....3/c5015499.jpg
I believe in avoiding airbrushing on the body-suit when ever possible. Body-suits need to be the most washable part of a fursuit, let's face it you are going to sweat profusely in there! Even the best airbrush paints fade with repeated washing. This means all those markings are sewn in, to do it the right way. I will do some airbrush fading between the black and gray if you desire.
So, bodysuit with digi legs, handpaws with claws and nice silicone pads, hindfeet with claws... Sounds like you have roughly $100 USD worth of Distinctive Fabrics and grizzly black fur, combining that in, I'll build the rest of your suit for $1325 USD plus all shipping costs. 3-month timeframe for completion from when I receive all required things (DTD, Fur, etc)
Let me know if you would like to proceed and work out finer details.
I'd still prefer to have you make it though...
The fur cost me £250 ($200) due to shipping and customs costs, and to ship the bodysuit, it would be another $100 dollars. Therefore, I will have already paid $300 without any of that going towards the suit...
Have you got any other pictures of the suits you've made in the past?
All of my related fursuit projects can be found in my gallery and scraps here on FA. The quantity is not great but I feel my quality shows through.
