Eden: Dude I am a geek, but for different reasons. I stand firmly by my belief. Maybe its worse were you live. Here in AZ we aint panzyaing around hehe. Are parties are so legendary 18-22 year olds come out just for the night. They don't have a tent or anything. They just come to party. We seem to have very different SCAs.
From your words actors, theatre, UFC, boxing, and Bruce Lee are geeky dorks. If I were you i wouldn't tell mike tyson that to his face

protip? and this isn't me, this is my mentor who's been in the sca for 25 years. Lose the shoulder pads. They'll slow you down more than they'll protect you. I've never used em. My mentor hasn't for years.
Oh, and how is the SCA different than any other martial art? They're all outdated. They all wear outdated clothing. Seriously, what is the geeky part of the SCA? So far no one has been able to tell me.

PS and the shoulder isn't a vital spot. If you want to be good go as light weight as possible and only cover the vitals. You should see my mentors armor...Its almost paper thin leather :P.
PPS that's nice workmanship. But where is that plastic version supposed to be from? its not japanese. Its nothing I recognize.

also the other one is more of an undercoat not armor (something you'd wear under armor)...
