I'mworking on making his arm armour at the moment.
you can see pics of his funary brass at
http://www.gothiceye.com/pictures.asp?categoryID=4
or else there is a better pic on page 235 of TOMAR

anyways, i was wondering, where all should i be rolling edges on this?
i'm going to do the bottom of the vanbraces definetly, but should i do the top of the shoulder cop, bottom of the rebrace or the top of the vambrace?

also on the elbows there looks to be a crease that runs horizontaly, i took that into acount when i made my paterns, and my test run.(who would have thought that 20, or 22 gauge tin was sutch a pain to work with) but should i put a crease down the rebrace/spaulder or anywhere else?

anyways, thanks for any help, and i'll be posting pics and the patern once i'm finished.
