wow, that's really impressive! What material are you using for the scales?

thanks. It's leather.

:U!!!!! Boiled, I assume? Wow, that's a lot of hard work, but it's really paid off :)

i hope it wont get wrecked by movement... it looks amazing! but i worry about the overlapping plates getting warped and creased when you move....

not sure yet, I've tried to design it so it should allow movement without being damaged, but we'll see. I've made similar (though not full body) costumes in the past and they've stood up to wear reasonably well. But this costume is just a big experiment, so yet to be determined how it actually fares being worn :)

That's super cool.

this is amazing, cant wait to see it done!

Wow this is awesome!

Nice tooling work.

Holy heck that is amazing. If I could afford something on that scale I would absolutely get some pieces like that made to complement the wonderful dragon I have from you, like legs and tail.

However I have to say I'm still as in love with that partial as I was on the first day, and have had a lot of great times wearing it. Do keep up your amazing work!

I am pretty sure I won't be making any more leather costumes like this. I am really happy to hear you're so happy with the one I made for you, though! Thank you!

I've been enjoying watching this take shape. Great work.

It's really nice to see a full costume of these. How much time did it take to build it so far?

daaaaaaaaaamn.....

FUUUUUUUUUUU... That's really beautiful work! Like an art piece almost!

I need this, or one like it! Fingers crossed I win the lottery then!

you are a god

OMG! Yes, that looks like a LOT of work! Awesome!

Oh, hot hella damn, thats neat!

OMG!!! thats how dragon suits must lool like !!!!

That's really amazing! You've put a ton of effort into it!

Wow! I don't even want to guess how much time and work that's taking.

that looks awesome. are you ever open for comissions?

Love the work on the costume. Most excellent work.

That is looking amazing!

yep there's feet and tail, just couldn't fit those into the photo. Thanks!

cool suit!

It whas a wonderful work and i realy need to have one from you

I saw this featured somewhere on my Facebook yesterday, it's amazing!

Nice, love the Derg!

that is wicked awesome!

Incredible! The time it must have taken to craft each piece of leather to such a degree! Leather crafters like you are the reason I've picked up leather crafting, I hope I get to see this suit someday!

I see, it is a leather suit fascinating; I am curious what kind of range of motion do you even have, because from the picture, I know the current pose is meant to highlight the body and the scale texture, at the same time however, it makes you look statuesque and that you cannot move very well, stiff joints. That being said, Love the design and features it has, all the work that went into it, respectable.

range of movement is yet to be determined. I don't think it should be too bad though? The base leather is soft, just with the harder plate scales on top. For the photo, this pose is just because it's still on a duct tape dummy. Hopefully I'll get some photos next month of it being worn on an actual person :)
Thank you!

amazing

Very nice

THIS is why I followed you since I first saw one of your heads up for sale.
