Hello all!
I was going about creating a Fraggle-ish puppet (Warrick, you know about this already - hee hee) and I have the head completed in a teal colour and the mouth interior is a navy colour (I didn't use black if only for aesthetic purposes). My question is twofold:
Firstly, does anyone know where I can find fur fabric that closely resembles a Fraggle look? (Somewhere I heard about getting fur fabric with a 'large pile,' but, as I'm not educated enough on fabric jargon, I'm clueless as to the definition - I was guided to berber, but it isn't the same thing) If anyone simply knows a location (preferrably online, since I don't enjoy paying for outrageous shipping costs, and I'd like to possibly have the stuff sooner) where I can obtain that type of fur, I'd appreciate it! And secondly...
About the fur, if someone knows a source, could you please inform me if either one of the following are okay: That the fur is either a) dyeable, or b) of a navy colouring. I would also think that teal would work, as long as the fabric was different than that of the head and appendages. Any info would be much appreciated! Thanks guys! I'll post pics when I'm done -- or you could just ask Warrick for the head-shot(s)
