Selling dragon costume?

Hello. I made this Smaug armor for the Hobbit premier party. I have loved it and hate to part with it…but i’m moving to Oz and it just won’t fit in my suitcase…i had to chose between my ax and the costume and the ax fits better. I was wondering if anyone knew of, like, a trademe for awesome people. I would kinda like to sell it to cover some of the cost but I am fond of it and would like it to go to a good home. Here’s what it looks like…

Any advice would be great!

Thanks

Wow, that’s absolutely amazing!

That is awesome. I would be interested except I think it might be just a bit too small for me, how much are you asking for it?

Gosh, thats gorgeous.

Thanks for the kind comments!

Lady Prema:
The bust part was made with a bra I converted. It was a 36 C. The bra part is the only part that connects in the back. The rest is open in the back and laces up, so it can be loose or tighter. I don’t really know what I’d ask for it. I’m not really sure what homemade costumes go for. $100 for the whole thing, wings and all, would cover some of the costs to make it. But it’s entirely made of foam and paint…so It might not hold up as well over time depending on the amount of a beating it needs to take. the torso has two sections to allow for extra movement, and if you really need to be running around you can just not wear the bottom part. The helmet is coated in resin and will hold up pretty well. The wings are made of light wood and are pretty sturdy and the straps can be adjusted easily, Just staple longer elastic to it.

Ok yeah I really don’t think I could squeeze into a bra that size, which is a big shame :frowning:
