WTB - Brass muscled greaves

Post by Lu-shan »

I'm posting for a friend -

He is looking to commission a set of muscled greaves, suitable for a Roman Gladiator type, in brass (actual brass). They need to be top quality, and custom fit. This is for SCA.

Thanks, Lu-shan

Albion has a bunch of gladiator stuff, including greaves, as I recall.

Here are some pictures of some aluminum greaves I made. I see no reason why I coldn't make some out of brass, I can make the muscles more pronounced as well. I would like to know what "flavor" of brass he wants though. Like cartridge or whatever.

Here are the set of stainless I did for The Lost Scott. I think they show more of the dramatic muscled look your friend may want.

I charge $80 for the stainless. I can't really give a price on the brass until I get some metal prices from my supplier.
