Well, he is on a mannequin torso right now with no arms...
He is for Eric, so the mask fits real well to him. But all the other pieces are on the way and in the works.
Not to mention I got a few more stitches to add to the mask there, but just waiting for the paints on it to dry right now, then i'll add them.

I won't say the idea hasn't rolled around yet. But as of right now I am not.
The balaclava alone took 8 hours to make, via all the modifications and its still not exactly where I want it to be.
The problem is physical mechanics. There are things the clava does in the came that in the real world is just bout physically impossible. But for what it is now, I am considering doing commissions.

Regular acrylic paint would work just fine, acrylics will stick to/stain just about any material; something I've learned through past experience with painting with acrylics extensively in my younger years. Plus you can water it down and paint it on layers to achieve a more faded look.

Yes, thats what I used on mine were simple Fabric Acrylics....
However, good luck in trying to thin out the paint if you are planning on using the knit balaclava. if you want to get the effect like from the game, you will have to cake the paint on there. Once it dried (the initial bone color I used) I then went over it all with the different colors to give the effects and the skull image.

You don't even need fabric acrylics, regular acrylics stick to fabric just fine; my parents can attest to that having stained numerous pieces of clothing and the carpet in my parent's house. You can even "dye" nylon with regular acrylic paint, I once "dyed" a black nylon web belt extender green using regular acrylic paint that you'd buy for painting.

I heard they got slammed with orders Chris. And its cool, they won't let ya wear it at Basic anyway
Lol, but I would contact them if you can and see whats up. I know lovemunkey got his, but he is in the UK, so it was probably easier to ship, but yeah, I'd hound them about it.

I have been since. What happend was is that my stupid paypal account keeps refusing to save my address change. As soon as I paid them, I noticed it was sending them my old addy up in north florida, and right then and there I sent them an email telling them that address is wrong, send it here. I didn't hear from them until a week later saying they had already shipped it.
I managed to go up north a little later by the old house, and the new tenets say they send back packages they recieve. The post office up there hasn't been helpful with this either.
Dosn't change the fact that I'm still out a mask and $30
