This blog has four parts. YusefJournal is my personal blog, SouthtowerArmouringGuild is my armouring blog. Swordhandling is the newsletter for the fighting group, and CanTheyActuallyDoThat is my rant blog. Click on the picture to navigate them.
This is the kind of work we are putting out these days. Less armour (Thanks India and Pakistan!) and more custom pieces. This was a set of gothic skull bikini tops for a most delightful client. I think you can enlarge them by clicking on them.
I would not be so crass as to have her pose without a bathing suit underneath on the interwebs, but seriously, these cover quite well.
Am I showing off? No. This is all Mark's work so I am showing HIM off!
These are the new buckles we got from Mr Hand in Pakistan. He does VERY nice work.
And below, that darned side lighting makes it look all dented. It isn't of course, in person the wheel rolled it VERY nicely and its as smooth as a baby's bottom.
Solid stainless steel. The tiger stripes on the armour came up as a result of the bending. I think (and Elysse things) they are VERY cool.
Now of course these have not been strapped up. When the time comes, some of the nice gold plated buckles I got from Italy may work. Or I may find some stainless steel ones. I think the ss would work better.
This is Elysse We are making a lot of armour for her, including this one.
Come back in a month or so and we will be showing off the armour Mark is making for those most magifient mammaries.
I think she is VERY pretty, and maybe even a little scary.
