does anyone know good sites to buy fabric off of? i'm looking for decently priced, solid stuff and a good variety of different fabrics and colors. i cant find any good fabric stores near me so i'm turning to the internet.

the fabrics i have in mind are regular cotton, polyester, technical fabrics, twill, canvas, cotton batting, and different weights of each

also DIY thread, post projects, plans, fuck ups, ask questions etc etc

stop painting your random beaters white please

Stefano's, actually. Never ehard of them, and it was $7 anyways.

Thinking of making the lapels button up to the neck and making the collar stand with the top button able to be undone into microlapels. Assymetrical buttoning following the contour of the lapel too. Need to tighten the thing in the sleeves and shoulders, along with the torso.

Any suggestions on what to add/ do to it?

OP, I really like your drawings, good work!

I need some help since you guys know a lot more about fashion than me. I'm working on this futuristic tomboy character, but I can't decide which colors to use (I'm sorry they are animu characters, though).

Which version do you like the most?

"I was raised by the streets, shaped by the alleys. My life was hard but I made it in the end. I learned many valuable lessons while digging through those landfills. Some lessons that will stay with me for life. That's why I take my blanket with me. Because without it, I wouldn't be where I am today."
