Sadly, it all comes down to money. Personally, I prefer ethical cosplayers.
I'm glad I got to be a member of this forum, otherwise I would've thought ZentaiZentai was my only option, and if I had then after signed up for this forum and found out it was stolen patterns, I would definitely compensate Orhader because that IS the right thing to do. As an artist myself, I respect peoples work, and wouldn't want something like this to continue nor would I like to contribute to thievery.
I'm not a very well financially stable person, since all I could afford at this time was TJacks ASM2 shell and lense combo and know I still would like to start the ASM2 suit with the pattern file I bought, but I know right now I have a budget and need the money, rather than subject myself to something not up to my standards, not saying if ZentaiZentai had good sewing skills on their suits I would buy one, I'm just saying I know the process of making a better suit, from my own experience as a noob on this forum, to looking at Lunamans build, Redtosugas build, as well as everyone's build to know the resources that are available. Where's the fun in purchasing a suit from a business when you can make your own from talented artists.
I thought the whole Colorsuits problem was going to keep going, I haven't heard about them lately, but didn't think a similar problem would occur.
Sure I have to pay at least a good $360 to fix my suit up but paying for a stolen suit at the low price of $120? No, just no. At least ZentaiZone has a better understanding, so far and hopefully they don't resort to stealing to compete with zentaizentai.
