Just a heads up on how things went down with the amazon list idea. It pretty much fell apart on 3 key facts Id forgotten:
1) Xmas. Friends of mine saw the list, took it for what it was (a wishlist) and attacked it with their wallets... which lead to
2) Shipping. Getting stuff on amazon, dirt cheap! Getting it sent to Australia... cost about 4 times more than the product does. For real, it woulda cost $50 for one metre of that vinyl, which was priced at $8.97/metre. That was okay though, because of...
3) Bad choices in materials. Turns out the cosplay community has loooads of different alternatives to lining foam with leather. So although majority of list has in fact been purchased (by friends in 1, through alternative measures because of 2, the leather was deemed no longer required. Instead, foam is being sealed with PVA and spray paint and polyurethane!... soon as I can figure out how to do it.
So what does this mean for the rest of you folks? ...Brainstorming time
The items I listed in my list were essential for Shush-suit's design. However I am just one guy, and my ideas for Shush have only been my ideas. If you can think of anything thats blue, flashy, and might look good on a cyborgy dutch angel dragon, speak up! Im espeeecially looking for any blue LED gear, and I been prowling the online stores just in case.
And dont forget, all commissions sold from here til June are getting their names placed on a panel inside Shush's head as a dedication to your help, as are the folks who bought pieces from the list. Getting to be a pretty big list right now, and you better belieeeve imma show it here before it gets sown in. My heartfelt thanks to those who have contributed to getting this underway, I hope the end result wont disappoint you.
