Really? what type of shellfish for purple?

Whats up today Mike?

I think its really cool how ya'll take a simple picture and find a piece of Armour such as this gauntlet and then bring it to life. VERY NICE

DAVID01

Greg, I don't think he is really blaming your school system, it sounds like to me he is just trying to get it across that it is as wrong to say that they "might" have used paint without any proof as it was for me to say Vikings might have used horns and then applied them to my helm. Now please don't...

Hell no Leave it

Rrrrrrrrealy coming along nicely. I dig the armoring tool in the background marked XX too.

Really? Do you think it could be modified?

DAVID01

Greg, I think you've really got something there this is catching my attention now. Me LIKE. I like collecting helms of all sorts this would make a good one to display... By the way I really mean that

How bout posting the pattern in the archives?

Animal's not just talkin bullshit, take it from me.

DAVID01

Hal looking at this helm really makes me wish I could do the Rattan thing. Very nice,when finished I think it will be a helm someone will be very fortunate to own.

HEH HEH....HEH HEH Medieval "WOOD"

Sir Gaston, can you tell me if this armour is anywhere close to authintic? [img]http://www.photodump.com/direct/MeadDrinker/a3_1_b.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.photodump.com/direct/MeadDrinker/ae_1_b.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.photodump.com/direct/MeadDrinker/all5.jpg[/img] Thank You

Sorry I forgot this part.
The coat is based on a real coat, the helmet is fantasy.

Thanks, is there an authintic helmet that is close to the same?

DAVID01

Unbelievable what a little nice stiching can do. Now that looks great.

DAVID01

Guess its easy for us ALL to get confused as to whos talking to whom

DAVID01

I personally wouldn't use the United Cutlery piece in combat. It's a worldwide-distributed limited edition numbering only 3000, and retailing at about $300 for the single gauntlet... Which, by the way, has a gold-plated ring on that index finger. All of the etching is done with computerized acid-et...

DAVID01

ONE MORE THING! I would like to apologize for the statement I mad about your leather helm being a silly looking little helm. Actually the reason I voted for it is because it was original and not just another hammered steel helm not to mention made by a beginner and pretty well done ..... I tryed to ...

DAVID01

Garth, is there anyway you can make the address you posted a little shorter? It makes it hard to read this thread. By the way the Anglo-Saxon shield boss looks a lot like a helm I saw on one of the armour of the month posts. Does anyone recall the one I'm talking about? I can't find the pic of it.

The point is that if there is no proof, then it's not a fact

Sorry - totally disagree with this. I'm sure others will too. There's no proof that your statement is true, therefore, it's not a fact

Excelent!

Thanks Mike

MeadDrinker, You've taken this far enough. YOU are the one not letting it go. Honestly, I started this thread in spite of you. Now, since you've decided not to back off once again, here's our PM's to show the world who's really bein' screwy. This is from last night, in order of events, after my pos...

DAVID01

Thats a very nice gaunt but I don't know how practical it would be as it looks like the finger ends would make it hard to hold either a rattan or a sword. Just my thoughts, I'd love to have a set though.

DAVID01

Yes, I think so. I can't recall for the life of me who it was that made it, but I thought he was Canadian. I could be wrong, though... ...and no, Lancelot, I'm not looking for it so I can poke fun at it. The fact is, I want to make one. Is that really so strange? Josh, I don't think he ment anythin...

DAVID01

MeadDrinker has called to my attention that I have "offended" people in the past, and I'd like to know if this is something I should have to worry about... I honestly don't know what to think, but then again, most people don't recognize their own faults. I'm with Samuel on this one. Anybody who tak...

BWAAAAAAAHAAAAHAAAAA! Can I use thatlast phrase?

DAVID01

Could one of you guys please post pics of these and progress pics of the covering of them?
Thank you, David

DAVID01

The part that goes from the mid knuckle to the fingernail is that one solid piece?

Do these look like they'd pass as authintic?

Newb helm?
