Costume tip jar

My name's Bec or Aurelius, depending on who you talk to. I run a page on FB called Aurelius' Armoury  through which I share progress shots of the costumes I make.

I created this go fund me because I've decided to  tackle a rather challenging costume for this years round of Brisbane Oz Comic Cons Crown Championships of Cosplay in September.
 So far my research into materials has brought me to the conclusion that this isn't going to be something I can fund entirely by myself.

I'm asking for a helping hand to make this costume happen and be the best it can be.
The money donated goes directly towards the costume and the supplies I need to make it.

The character that I'm making is one that I've loved for a very long time so I really hope I can make this costume work with your help.

Silicone 2kg kit: $ 131.67
