reading about chitosan. We should have more household products made with chitin. Most chitosan production is shrimp harvest byproduct but I don't think there's a reason you couldn't do bioreactor fungi for it as well. There's some interesting papers on spinning threads from chitin or chitin-cellulose blends, it is weird because it's not a protein fiber but it's kind of like one? but I guess it would be pretty different from wool or Azlon, chitin is pretty weird. I've previously encountered chitosan as a clotting agent in trauma bandages, which is neat. I wonder if you can homogenise it into a wound spray.

Beetles living in the dark teach us how to make sustainable colors
Inspired by beetle cuticles, scientists have developed optical structures that can produce vibrant, iridescent and completely biodegradable colors using chitin—the world's second most abundant organic material. "Extreme scarcity conditions have enabled natural materials to evolve into some of the most extraordinary materials on Earth, such as incredibly strong spider silk and impact-resistant seashells," said Javier Fernandez, Associate Professor of Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD). Throughout history, scientists have consistently turned to nature for inspiration to solve problems and develop new technologies, from da Vinci's flying machines modeled after birds to efficient swimsuits that mimic shark skin.

I was going to add Gideon the Ninth to the audiobooks that mispronounce ‘chitinous’, but now I have to add Harrow the Ninth.
So now I have:
1. Out of House and Home by Drew Hayes
2. Phantom and Rook
3. Gideon the Ninth and 4. Harrow the Ninth
This is a completely pointless list to keep, BUT THE BRAIN COMPELS.

Light Chitin armor
Concept art for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Dragonborn DLC
Art by Qingyi Li
This piece is interesting as Lucas Hardi created the heavy version of Chitin armor for the DLC as you can see below. I've yet to find any Bonemold concepts so those were likely handled by another artist
This means at least three separate artists were creating armor concept art for Dragonborn. I'd be very interested to know who the other artist(s) may be.

While the divine fluids hold great power and sway in this world, they are not the only tools available. There are a lot of folk out there who do not have access to an abundant source of these humors, and what little they have is best served for food, warmth and medicine. What good is such powerful magic if your family freezes in the cold night, or your fellow townsfolk grow ill from blight? Wasting this precious fluid on anything else seems foolish, especially when there are easier tools to use in a fight. The world is bountiful in more than just humor, which can be seen in the great mines that burrow deep into buried corpses, or in the billowing strands of a hair-filled field. The millennia of godfalls and countless other carcasses is what made the land we stand upon now, and in their death comes our blessings. Dissectors and harvesters work through the flesh filled earth or reap from the overflowing fields, gathering precious resources for the people to use. These materials build homes, carry bread and cloak bodies, and when things grow dire, they can arm and protect. And as war rages across the land and madness plagues the very world, weapons are seemingly needed now more than ever.  
Bone: The most common material used to craft weapons, bone is enjoyed for its sturdy nature and heft. Bileforgers are able to melt down bone and shape it into whatever form they need, or can reinforce it with stronger ivory chunks. It is a material good for slashing, stabbing and smashing, shaped into a wide variety of weapons. Folks say that bone is your standard fare, good for when any weapon will do. It is important to know what entity these bones came from, as that will determine their strength and durability, and nothing frustrates a bileforger more than getting a satchel full of loose tibia and a "I don't know." 
Chitin: A weapon material praised for its razor edge and lightweight, perfect for those who seek speed in their strikes or don't wish to haul a heavy bone club across the landscape. Chitin is favored for slashing weapons, as little work needs to be done at the forge to get that perfect cutting edge. The material is also enjoyed for its natural color, as most others require paints, dyes or humor infusions to gain a pleasing palette. Chitin is gorgeous from the moment it is harvested, and in the hands of a professional bileforger, they can be turned into deadly works of art. 
Keratin: When warriors and workers need flexibility, then keratin is the material they choose. These harvested hairs are not just physically flexible, but also can be utilized in a variety of ways. Ropes of hair are already common, and any fool can shape a thickened strand into a nasty point. Keratin is great for bows and weapons that need to have some bend and give. They also can be hardened into spears and other piercing weapons, while plated keratin can form hammers, clubs and tough armor. Horns also fall into the realm of keratin, and it doesn't take a crazy imagination to see the potential those have. Keratin can come in a variety of colors, just the same range that can grow from one's scalp. These can be found growing naturally across the landscape, while some farm special strains to get the right consistency and color. It is also an easy material to grow at home, requiring no mining or hunting to obtain, all one needs is a pouch of hair bulbs, nutritious soil and patience.
-------------------------------------------------------------
"FOI Common Weapons"
A shorter entry, but I think a good one for a decent look into this world. A thing to keep in mind is that everything is pretty much organic. Metal is not a material used here (and if one of my drawings looks like it has metal in it...uh, no it isn't...I mean, dragon scales! It's dragon scales or ichored bone! GEYAH!), so everything is forged and carved from things like bone, hair, chitin, scales and hide. Yessiree! This world is certified 100% organic (except for glass, stone and a little oh you get the point).
And if anyone is like "but bone isn't actually good for weapons and such" just remember: this is fantasy bone! Mined straight from the earth by miner bugs carving through the buried corpses of fallen gods. Lets have some fun here!
