Open to suit commissions
10 years ago
[EDIT] closed while I work on some pre-mades [EDIT]
So I've thought it over, and after building Storm, he was a lot of fun to build/wear and turned out a lot better than I thought.
There's a few things I need to adjust on him and can avoid next time (mostly the eyes and fur length).
Now I've decided to open for commissioning. I really just want to get my name out there for now, so I'm starting at $2000 a full suit. If you're interested, it'll take 3-6 months after receiving initial payment, DTD, and measurements to complete because I'm not a full time builder. Since it's my second build, I want to keep it simple. Only canidae species, and no patterns more complex then Storm.
I'll leave this open for 2 weeks and pick one at the end, otherwise I'm going to start making a one off suit and auction it.
$640 is due up front, and the other $1360 before the suit is received.
After realizing how awesome cons are, I'm planning on using the money to attend more.
I also enjoyed all the complements Storm got, while I can't be in multiple places at once, It'd be cool to see my creations out there.
A few things about my work, I'm a perfectionist and like to over engineer things. I use Kevlar thread which has double the tinsel strength as nylon and 0 stretch, heavy duty poncho zipper, lightweight/breathable 1" foam, 2 pockets on the inside big enough for a phone and thin wallet, and other things like that.
