  1. I need to make up a fairly sizeable black art cover for a prop appearance, and I'm trying to work out the best fabric to use (it's going to be kabuki dropped, so must be cloth). Everyone says that velvet is the way to go, but looking at a sample of J&C Joel's Velvet Velour it sheens quite badly at the wrong angle, and since my cloth is going to be wrapped around three sides of a box, and lowered in from above, this is a concern. Comparatively, Premier Wool Serge is slightly more reflective versus the velvet at its best, but is still very matte black and seems to be more consistent; it's the same from any angle and doesn't really sheen on a bend at all. So from the "wrong" angle the serge is actually blacker to look at. Does anyone have any experience on something that works well for Black Art? Many thanks, Gareth
