    Have the parts, but lack the talent... (Cloak of Cloak & Dagger)

    Hey all,

    I'm in need of a person to finish a custom for me: Cloak (of Cloak & Dagger). I have the parts (shown below) and have been meaning to do something about it, but haven't. I hate having this project just sitting out there, so I'd like to pay someone to finish him for me. If anyone is interested, send me a PM and we can hash out the details.

    Thanks!

    Sean

    Something like this?



    Curious -- Is that all the material you have for the project? Also, I don't intend to judge you, but I would have searched for a much narrower stripe pattern to be more in scale with the figure. I would also recommend lining the cloak with BLACK to enhance the final effect (just my two cents).

      The reverse side of the cloth is all black - i ordered it that way - and yes, i'm afraid that i woefully underestimated how much material i would need. still, i hope to get this done soon and mounted with dagger...

        I would (conceivably) be willing to help you out -- as I have Mad Sewing Skillz -- but I am very concerned over the limited amount of fabric, which leaves virtually no room for error or experimental creativity.

        I have been meaning to stop by some local fabric stores (but the opportunity has evaded me) to see if I can find something similar -- perhaps with a narrower stripe -- that might suit for ONLY the hood-and-cowl like on the photo I posted above, which would save ALL your material for the cloak. If I were able to find such material, I would commit to your project. In the meantime I am extremely hesitant to offer my services.

        I realize you are in a hurry, but I remain interested...
