Corrazina kit or costume, make me an offer

[Armourkris]

This Corrazina has been gathering dust on a shelf at my place for a few years, it needs a new home.

I say kit or costume because while the plates themselves are all armour grade, the covering is a single layer of denim with hundreds of thumb tacks. it's plenty solid for waring around, but I'm pretty sure that the faulds wouldn't last too long in combat.

If you like I'm willing to take off the buckles and strip it down to just the plastic plates, or I can ship it a is.

It fits a 45" chest strapped like it is in the pics, but there is a few inches adjustment either way.
The plates are made from white pickle barrel, and the shell is a single layer of denim.


anyone interested? make me an offer, buyer pays shipping

any other questions feel free to ask.

Hmmm.... I love this piece. Yep, it's made from pickle barrel, denim and thumb tacks, but it is done in a period style, and I bet it passes the "10 foot rule" easily.

Somebody needs to buy this and wear it on the field just to PROVE that you don't have to spend a bunch of $$ to create decent, period looking gear.

Kind of reminds me of the bet I took a long time ago that I could build a helmet with a claw hammer, cinder block, tree stump and dremel tool. (I did cheat and use a beverly shear to cut it out, but I offered to use a chisel and/or hacksaw) I built a somewhat, uh.. lumpy but passable barrel helm and fought in it. Then I gave it away to a newbie to replace his old army pot helm conversion (yes, it was that long ago )

Nice job Armorkris!

I would totally be interested if you went in canada. The s/h to me would just rape me.

[Amc4005]

Dibs pending a few questions. PMing you.

[Amc4005]

Ah, nevermind. Missed the fact that you were in Canada. Retract dibs, can't afford shipping .

[Ned Chaney]

For curiosity's sake what would shipping be from you to Reno NV?

[darksole03]

Do you have the plans for this BP by by chance?

Not for this exact one, but Jess found this pattern and finished pics:

It's what I'm going to make sometime soon-ish.

[Armourkris]

It Looks like it may be going to WhoKnew, but that's not confirmed yet.

Edward atte Flynt, according to the UPS calculator it'll ost somewhere around $45 or $50 to ship it to reno from me

Darksole09, I'm afraid i don't have them any more, built this probably 6 or 7 years ago now, however, those links Louise de Leon pulled up should serve you well. as an aside, now i know who built the one that inspired this one.

I'm very interested in this if you other deal falls through.
