It is a dangerous road...

Heh...you can say that again. I made one little kite shield back in late-2012, and now...well...let's just say the only parts of my current kit that I didn't make are my shoes, sword, and scabbard. :P

Lol.
Speaking I making things, I just bought fabric and only have enough for a civilian outfit with my heraldry or a surcoat. What should I make!( civilian outfit would be a long tunic)

Make a surcoat, then go out and buy more fabric to make a tunic. Or, alternatively, make a tunic then go buy more fabric for a surcoat. ;)
Per pale azure and argent, an eagle displayed per pale argent and sable, armed and langued or.

So a Norman, a Saxon, and a Viking walk into England....

I would make an gambeson first...it is what I did with my 8 yards of linen...gambeson/arming doublet/pourpoint (whatever you want to call it)...then arming cap...then jupon to go over my snazzy armor lol...I will probably have to make some chausses/braes combo soon and a linen undershirt...but I want bleached linen for that!

Well I already have 2 templar surcoats, and don't really have much civilian garb other than my gambeson with a belt around it and some tights of the modern day. Lol. But I did buy it with the intent of surcoat.

for surcoat it would be red with purple border at the bottom that raps around, and 3 gold fleurdiles with a gold chevron above them.
basically something similar with the tunic.
