Original Message to Art of War Mar 2, 2011 1:17 PM: "Would you be interested in producing a behelit beanie or knit cap? The egg shape of the behelit I think is perfect for this kind of tuque with two eyes, a nose and a mouth. I think idea is very good, and would love Art of War to pursue this, and I would even be willing to offer a hefty donation so that this artwork gets picked up. Please consider great idea to your shop very much in need of more Berserk clothing! - Eric"

"Dear Eric,
Thank you so much for your support.
Your opinions are interesting and creative. We think that a Behelit beanie
or knit cap is very cool and practical. Also we will consider making more
Berserk clothing in the future. Thank you so much for your great ideas. We
are going to discuss them in the next production meeting. If you have any
concerns about Berserk items, please feel free to contact us at any time.
Thank you very much.
Have a nice day!
Sincerely,
ART OF WAR
Linghan Huang"
Hello, SK.Net, "SK'ers," fellow Hawks/Falcons, and Berserk central! This is a rough copy of a letter I had written to artofwar.jp back earlier this year. It was also the last I had heard from AOW. I do not know if this is a board to put out commissions on, but I thought I would share this merch idea I have had for a while and see if it might yet see any light. I know there is a plethora of talented people here as is evidence by "Joa," or James w/ DirectDK, from what little I have already seen on this wonderful site. I have no specifics for this request. I do not request that eyes be opened or closed or the mouth closed or grinning (the behelit dormant or active). I am sure I would buy this in any realization. You have proven there are model-smiths out there. But us Berserk fans have always seemed out of luck when it comes to things we can wear representing our favorite dark fantasy story.
I hope I'm not alone in the Art of War pricing seeming outrageous more often than not, but I am ignorant of how to go about procuring affordable Berserk Merch (if there is such a thing) since there is so little of it to be found. But if anyone thinks they can take a crack at this or know someone who can work their crocheting needle at it, then I think I'd be willing to throw money at them.
I am convinced the idea is sound.
