Dan, what does the form look like you use to shape these and how do you keep the shape after putting it in the oven? Does it bake still on the form?

DAVID01

I agree, your stuff clearly ROCKS, but is not finding a buying group that appreciates it on e-bay. BTW: I am getting closer to being funded to place a commission for this: [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v87/finkas/SarmatianSpangAlt1.jpg[/img] Maybe you could give me a quote? It would be a s...

DAVID01

Looks like you got a deal waiting with Stonekeep Hal. I was gonna recommend you sell through someone that has an Armour site but looks like its been done and answered.

Good Luck

That statue is total crap. It has nothing to do with real armour.

Excuse me -- I have to go and drive the porcelain bus.

Effingham

Sorry if I offended you Effingham, That was not my intention.

DAVID01

That statue, while possibly of an armor of the Edo period, is most likely completely of an artist's interpretation. The legs and feet are misinterpreted or stylized, as is the loin panel. Same with the inside of the elbows and the vambraces. It looks fairly decent (if late-period) otherwise. I have...

So, does anyone have any pics of hot chicks in armour or other related garb? Lets see em! I'm bored and de-sensatized with my usual fare of plain old NaziAsianMidgetTransexualFisting porn. I need something new and refreshing. Dave Yeah like Rosanne Barr in the BUFF... Kinda like seeing Kathy Bates ...

DAVID01

DAVID01

I have invited an artist I met on e-bay to join us here and hope you will all make him feel welcome. Michael I hope you have fun here and find many friends. There are some very talented and nice people here and I hope you wont be afraid to say hello. Have fun and enjoy the Archive. David

DAVID01

Wow Mike, that looks like it would be worth the wait unless you could find someone that can make it that nice and quicker... or maybe even have one in stock.

DAVID01

You should post photos, I'm sure there are many here who would like to see it. Including myself.

DAVID01

Mike, thank you for this advise . I can use this as well.

DAVID01

Wow, thank you for the short slide show of raising the helm. I wish I could get a full video of something like this. I have always wanted to see how it is done. This gave me a little better Idea of it.

DAVID01

I wish someone would put a detailed essay in the essay sections on this.

DAVID01

Mike what did you pay for the helm your returning? If yo dont mind me asking.

DAVID01

My wife loves it

.

DAVID01

Hal, what did you say the price was on the tool kit?

DAVID01

There again though Dave if the newby is as new as I was then just like me he may not even know that SCA even exists or even know the word anochronistic. There for it would be up to the answering party to ask him spacifics. Wouldent you say?

DAVID01

You know I think this is an exaple of what always seemed to get me PO'd. I would be confused between the SCA, historians,LARP/fantasy. If you don't know who your talking too and what their into AND you don't know how to express your questian in the right way, you can make all kinds of people pissed ...

Anyway, it looks great!

I'm not sure but that looks like he used a background tool to me.

DAVID01

Ray I think you must have been a master armorer in another life and it is coming back to you. Your a natural. I can hardly believe this work let alone the musculate. Your awsomely talented
