There's a gentleman whom I meet up with each Furjam who is very keen to help me with advice on starting a Sebastian costume if I get around to it. There's an Australian Fursuiter's website, and there are a few individual people here with enough talent to make what I need in Sebastian (they're not easy to find though, and often booked-up). I wouldn't have been opposed to ordering my suit from a more professional fursuit-maker in the USA, except that the Aussie dollar has fallen below 77cUSA.
However the electronics is a whole different ball game. I've seen a few fursuits that incorporate LEDs, but nowhere near on the scale that I'll be requiring.
(Having had very little sleep last night due to insomnia I'm going cross-eyed viewing the Mini Maker and Hackerspace websites).
All stuff for the future anyway. Plan #1 is to get an air-conditioner.
BTW - On a sour note Qantas was recently offering a good deal - AUD$2,000 return to visit Vancouver. Unfortunately I've already allocated all my leave time for the 2014/2015 year.
