Greetings Saign
Well gaping ( the gauntlets ), lack of some shape placement variables. The chest plate seems to be a bit long and flat. Even though they look great I see room for improvment. My experiance of 20 years of armouring show me this. I also see room for improvment with myself and the day I think I have learned it all, is the day I hope I die. For there is no way to have learned it all. And anybody that I see talent in, I will help out with what I know.
1st advice-You just have to step back and look with different viewpoints, and when you do that on all projects, you will learn alot more. In blunt terms be your worst judge.

AB I'm never happy with my work.And I was very frustrated when he sent me that pic and I saw the gap.But the comments about the chest,thats the way he wanted it he specificly asked for it not to have the boulbus look,he said they were for fat men...which is partially true,but whatever as long as he's happy.
P.S.nice mullet
Stanislov thank you, and yes thats what I'm working on now in my free time.Its close but still alot of filing.I still have a legband,choker,crown,and dagger to make,oh yeah and sandals too
I will have it complete and my model in a photo shoot by mid to late august,depending on my work schedule.

HA! Mullet!!!
Yeah, Chad doesn't really have a grasp on the period stuff, Maximillian armour was by definition a bit globose, It had nothing to do with being fat. If he opened a book , gone to a museum or held the real thing he'd know that. He could have gone with a peascod or a black and white which I suggested to him because it would have fit his body type.
You gave him what he wanted, Believe me, I've done my share of making the client happy against my better judgement. But if that's how they want to be seen in public...
Heh, I wondered who he went to.
I love what you did with the peircework, More pics dammit!

Not Safe For Work. Standard tag for pics, sites that might get someone in a bit of trouble while viewing at work.
Nice stuff by the way.
