I Want to Make Real Armor
Those links will help a lot, I'm seriously thinking about (if the money keeps being steady) working on my pet armor project this summer. Pitbull Armory has some awesome armor and I've modeled a lot of my designs after his pieces.
The thing is, I'm not just looking for cool (I've made "bucket armor" before for the SCA), I want functional armor. I'd like to make armor for what it was originally made for, protecting you during battle. I was thinking of leather backing with riveted steel/metal/suitable alloy in a Lorica Segmentata style plan talked about. Chainmail under it and an arming coat under that. Chainmail I can make and I can buy a undercoat.
I think I'm going to make a thread on this and have the mods pull these posts out of it so I keep your thread on topic tele.
