Description

Build your own Paisan kit.

Interpreted elements of a 14th century armor, for SCA sport combat.

Polyens, Couters, Spaulders, and Bascinet with Bretache and Aventail, all trimmed in latten and leather.

16 g mild steel elbows knees and shoulders.
14 g mild steel helmet.
12g mild steel bretache.
1/4" bar stock for the grill.
homemade tube vervailes, 16g.
16g tie wire, with 22g brass wire, twisted to hold on the aventail.
Mild riveted aventail from [link]
repurposed brass kickplates for the trim.
boatloads of 1/8" shank brass rivets.
chrometanned leather dags and straps.

Rather ambitious project on my part. As close to a full harness as I've made in a long long time.

Don't sell yourself short! If this isn't talent, I don't know what is. :) A lot of people think, "Well I learned how to do this..." Thing is, we all have to learn a skill. It takes talent to know how to judge certain things for yourself, though.

Personally, I love the tight contours you gave it.
