Custom cup hilt and demi gauntlet

Post by sarnac »

These were made for me by Ramiro from Starleaf Gate in the Midrealm...he is also part of IronWolf

the cup is similar to ones he has made before but I wanted mine more streamlined like the cup hilt from Anshelm.
Then lines are perfect for my hand.

The demi is a hair too long over the knuckles for my tastes, but I can tweak that with no problems... but the articulation makes it feel like its not even there.

The polish is great....

I am MORE than satisfied with his work.

At least you're holding the sword in the correct hand.

You can use tools, Al? That's not what JP was saying... He said you had to take men-at-arms just to have someone with an opposable thumb around to open your beer. Image

Left handed or right handed. Take your pick. I'll be waiting on the field. Image Image

I may not win but at least I'll be there to make a show of it, and have fun trying. Image
