What's to come

Thu Apr 9, 2009, 12:55 PM
My dear readers,

many have I uploaded in the last weeks. The next weeks until July will be very productive. I have many commissions now, a whole ensemble for a Hobbit woman for Larp that I really enjoy to make, and some other major commissions for Larp and players, not to forget the projects for me: a new Renaissance corset, sleeves, a new Greek Peplos, a white elven dress and a modern Doublet.
You might have noticed that I have uploaded many works of jewelry in the last weeks. The cause is, that I've been asked to share a stand at a well visited Medieval fair in July. The only constriction is, that the organiser does not like Fantasy, so I want to specialise in historical jewelry and sell too bags and other bits and pieces.
Another thing I am planning is a photo-shooting with my own old dresses, now that spring has come and green and warmth is back. I will reload them then.
So many pictures will follow and I am far from doing nothing :)

Hi!

Yes, I am a Larper and of course I can help you with your armour!
The basic is the concept. It needs a bit knowledge to be comfortable and wearable in the end, so if you don't have it yet, you might have to change it a lot.
To get the pattern you should wear an old T-Shirt (it might not survive it) and take a roll of crepe tape that you wrap around yourself in at least two layers where the armour should be afterwards. Now you best draw the lines of the design on it and cut it out, if it doesn't work you can cut the crepe tape at the lines where the armour later will have the closings (I suggest you below the arms downwards and on the shoulders) and then draw the lines. Try and change it as long until it fits and is comfortable (do a lot of movements that you will do in the armour). Then you can begin to cut the leather with a cutter. Don't forget the overlapping parts on the leather if you haven't drawn them on the pattern!
So far the first steps. If you need further help you can ask me of course. I hope my English is understandable^^*

Have fun and good success! :)
And please let me now how it became ;)
So far the first steps.

It was a lot of fun and a harder job that I thought but the profit was incredible for the first try :)
