Description The most impressive piece I've produced to date. This is eventually going to be a part of my costume armour that I'm planning to have at least mostly done by the time springtime rolls around. It's 4 different pieces lined up and will eventually be connected with some sort of leather arrangement underneath.

For those not in the know, "spaulder" is a term used to describe a certain type of armour designed to protect the shoulders. Once this piece is actually finished, the application will become clearer. I hope.

Thanks! I've been getting the itch to finally finish these by connecting them all and preparing them to be attached to a gorget, to be made sometime in the future.

The fact that this spaulder is all copper is what really took me back! Kudos on a kick ass piece! Your work here is just incredible! Excellent job!

that does look wicked. I suspect it's made of hamered bronze or copper.
Love the details, absolutely kickass. I can't wait untill you show us the finished piece.

Though isn't is closer to C'thulhu than the Kraken?

Thanks! It's all copper, top to bottom.

And I call it a Kraken because that is one of the demi-god-like beings that are under the Goddess of Nature at a LARP I belong to. This piece and it's twin will ultimately be a part of a whole suit of armour I'm making for my character.

ah I see, in that case I understand. I wish you luck on duplicating your design onto a second spaulder, hope it turns out as identical as possible.

peace
