I Need A Bit Of Advise, Please

I'm looking to make a realistic furry dragon head and have already ordered the point nosed dragon resin mask, resin dragon jawset, and thin point silicone tongue from Dream Vision Creations, and custom made 3D follow me eyes from Epic Studios

I've been using thefabricexchange.com or fabric.com lately for fur.

If I can get it at fabric.com I buy it there. If not anywhere that is cheapest. Right now that's the fabric exchange. Black friday will have good prices so keep an eye out for fursuit materials at your fabric shops and online. Order swatches!

Awesome! Thanks!

Do you have any suits that show off the silver or yellow?

[fibrodrake]

Gray and neon yellow, sorry. :)

Here is the thing about silver. It is notoriously inconsistent. What my gray may look like may not be what you end up getting. Different online retailers get different batches. In my own collection I have 3 different shades of gray that is supposedly all gray shag. The only way to absolutely know the gray you are getting is to order a swatch and try to order from the same batch number.

I believe right now that is true for a majority of furs of that style right now. So order swatches and order them from the place you plan on buying the furs and buy them within a few days or a week. I made this head with fabric.com gray like 5 or 6 months ago.

Wow, that's adorable!
I'll definitely get a few swatches ASAP.
