Money and Cosplay/Fursuiting Conflicts

Sun Jun 15, 2008, 8:54 PM
Current exchange rate sucks.
299 Canadian Dollar = 290.554 US Dollar

I would really like this awesome coat by AbbyShot but to by it from the site is nearly 300 US dollars not including shipping! Ebay is less but still...$176 w/shipping. Friend of mine got one but omg! It's toooooooooooo much money for a leather coat! I would like to do a KH cosplay (even though I've never played it. I'd be Saix:D) with her and a group but.....it's so much money for that coat.

Thing is, I have the money and more but to spend that money on a coat for cosplay!?! I can't. I have COD and books to think about. Ah well, I'll finally start working on my fursona suit then. I mean, I've got the fur (enough for a partial) and the foam is pretty cheap, and I can buy a cheap balaclava hood from a Outdoor Sporting goods store. I'm set but for the actual construction. Also, 4-H projects are eating up my project budget so you won't see much of me for a while. ;)

Sleepy now,

I was planning on making the coat myself out of heavyweight twill... it's accurate to the in-game renders, though not the (infinitely badass) cutscenes, and alot comfier and cheaper. I'd have the whole year to do mine, so I could make yours and Heather's, once I finish making a pattern. :]
But yeah, lemme get back to you on that once I start mine, mkay? No use making promises this early xD;; But I think it'd be ok.
I totally understand. If it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. :shrug: Cool then, I'll have to talk to you about it when the time comes and we're scrambling for time. ;)
