Does anybody have any sugestions on how to have arms for an early 15th century kit that wouldnt cost that much. I wish I had the money to spend on fluted anrs and the like...but I dont.


Any suggestions on what might look good? Were there any splinted transitons or the like?


Thanks

Matt

If you want to use it for SCA, you might have to add a little something on the inside of the elbows (heck, just a hardened leather triangle, backed with some padding, inside the "Y" of the inner couter strap), but they should otherwise be adequate.

They'd look nice with your cuirass, too. ;)

And here I thought the "Centyru" would be an ethnic group with a distinctive style of armor... :D
