Description Another photo of the Saviors Hide in progress. I still need to add more chain mail and teeth. I then need to figure out how to tighten the loincloth as its too big for me. Maybe using rivets and leather cord, that would look neat. I also need to redo the straps holding it up as I tried it all on and it promptly broke off after I took these pictures. You can find a slideshow with instructions on how I built this armor here: youtu.be/QYIF0FjHr7c

Damn, I am impressed.

Currently working on the same armor as a way to kill time while I wait for a change in weather to be able to paint my Dragonscale set (stupid spray primer and its required working temperature when the only place one can work with it has no heating system). 

Anyway, I know it's a really difficult and detailed chestplate.

I decided to make the shoulders a little less padded for my project because I was worried about them being disproportionate huge on me and made it a little shorter to allow for more freedom of movement, so I'd love to see which seems more true to the original propartions worn.
Maybe I was overly cautious.

*so I'd love to see THIS -which seems more true to the original propartions- worn.

Thank you, I know what you mean about the spray paint. I have the same problem here so can't spray anything till spring now! I have a few finished photos up on my facebook right now here:  www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbi…

I am impressed and I like the different chainmail for the final version. Looks even better!

Also... apparently we do like the same armor sets.
After the Nightingale, I turned to the Dragonscale - and I see you are working on those boots atm, too - while I am happily constructing my Saviors's hide waiting for better temperature to paint those.

Gorgeous! <3

Especially love the chain mail skirt, feminine yet strong

the shoulders, they are not large and they seem really cozy

Fantastic skills!

For me. It's been a work in progress for a few months.
