LoL XD We re using the same main plate for the thumb XD By the way our thumbs contains more plates about 3-4 piece between the upper plate and the last finger piece. I think also the 4 finger plates are a bit small il widh, or the gaunlet is big XD By the way i love this work! Keept it!

One gauntlet to rule them all.

It looks amazing so far, must be incredibly hard to make a piece for such a complex place as a hand.

Good work.

quite hard! but if you interested in something you study the object and learn by watching it then recreating it after you made the whole thing in your head!

the most important thing is to dare to try!

You're a prodigy dude.

As soon as you figure out a way of doing international shipping I'm going to commission something just so I can be like "Yeah, I got some of Skane Smeden's work from way back, like when he started his shop, go ahead and envy me..." haha.

Skane-Smeden In reply to Baron-Cimetiere [2010-10-04 20:51:51 +0000 UTC]

Haha! xD

well i can do international shippings, but dont know what it cost and can't guarantee that the packet will reach it's destination since i never tried before... but we can start with something small to se if it works

and if you got paypal we can fix with the money easy (almost, dont have it myself but my brother dose)

I'm waiting on my new gambeson so I can get proper measurements (Mine got ripped due to my voiders being pulled off during a bind, lol)
After that comes in I'll be in the market for some new arms. I'll let you know when I've got the cash.

I'm gonna post a pair of pauldrons soon, I've finished planishing them today, I only got to drill the holes on them, de-rust them and cover them with lacquer. And assemble them.
