Hi there, I have been working on making my armor more human shaped. Shaping the armor like this makes it 3D instead of 2D im learning. Plus Jiri Klepac told me the other day that no plate on good armor is just bent, its all shaped.

These are Vambraces I made for a customer last week, they are made to be worn with no elbow protection but im going to modify the pattern so they can be mounted to my elbow joints on my full arms. (Once I re work my elbow cop shapes....) They have a slot to slide your thumb through as you put them on. In the future Ill put a roll at the wrist and add a hinged wrap plate.

Take care

Pitbull
