Ive got a lady friend who wants a breasplate and backplate. Im not sure how long she will need it as her interest seem to wounder. So i was thinking, are there any new armourers who wanted to give a try to make a cuirass for her? I dont think it would take much steel as shes a small women. She will be willing to pay but of course i dont think she is willing to pay the price of a top shelf armourer. And she wont let me convince her of going mild steel. She wants 18 gauge stainless with a good even polish. Shes willing to go as high as the lowest bidder (unfortunetly). So i figured this would be a good time for some newer armourers to take a swing at it.

I might be interested. I'm not really a new armourer, but I don't charge top level prices and don't do many commissions. What style and completion date is she looking for?

lower bidding might mean lower quality....be prepared for that. Something to think about. :wink:

If you haven't picked an armourer yet, I would like to throw my hat in there as well. Are there any more specifics that you could PM me? I actually might not have time to fit another project in my schedule, but I'm definitely interested. I am most definitely a "newer armourer"
