Yay :D! It's almost finished!
And as always, some steps :D
|
Drilling holes into the metal plates~ |
|
Then I sanded the surface.....and got silver fingers from the metal-dust xD |
|
Added some colour with acrylics and sealed the plates with colourless varnish |
|
Riveting straps :D |
|
BIG THANX to my boys for helping with everything :)!!!! |
|
Here you see the back-lacing and the holes for the plates~ |
|
The whole thing without plates~ |
|
Trying out how it looks before riveting.. |
|
First time trying it on with the plates.....feels good ^___^ |
|
I did change the back a little bit later (sewed the upper part tighter) |
|
^______^ |
|
Front~ |

Side~ |

Now I'm going to add some black lining and then...the main part will be finished^^!
I'm further planning to make "Beintaschen" (don't know the english word :P), bracers, a breast plate, a scabbard.....moaaarrr stuff.....
So stay tuned for more ;)
