Well, thank you, that is quite the compliment. I try my hardest to always become better as I go along. My best tip, is to take the time to do it right, not fast, but proper. I looked through some of your leather working pictures. You've got some nice stuff as well. Keep it up!

Excluding patterns, just the assembling, embossing, stamping, shaping, dyes, etc ...roughly 54 hours. Luckily for me, I'm at a point now were I am able to craft faster thanks to prior experience. If I had done this 2-3 years ago, it would have probably taken around 70 hours and not been as good.
And thanks, im glad you like it

Actually, yes, i was in one or two videos from this past summer taken during an Arena match while i was playing my Black Orc and apart from that there are probably a few hundred pictures of me wearing armour during various LARPs spanning from 2002 to this day.
It is very possible that you have seen me on the web, but I have not exposed any pictures of myself online other than here or on my facebook account.

those of us that are larger can appreciate the lower abdomen design

I hadn't thought about that, but your absolutely right. I am slim myself, but i often see "larger" players that have belly buttons sticking out. It kind of kills the person's costume ><

This is an amazing piece of work, my friend. I love the design of the breastplate. Very unique. Well articulated and extremely well crafted. There are many hours of hand cramping tooling in this one for sure! The tribal design on the pauldrons are agreat touch. I could just go on and on. I'll just keep staring at it for a while. Thanks for posting detailed shots of this fantastic work of art.
