Of course, for myself, my tastes have grown beyond my abilities, so I would rather pay someone to do it right instead of me attempting it, then never being quite happy with it. :)

I'm totally in the same boat. I just don't have the skills to do it right. It's easier (not necessarily easy, just easier) to just pay for someone else to do it properly. But at least I can defer the helm part a little while.

At some point I also need to think about gauntlets. Hourglass or Wisby? Hmmm... :) I have those really junky hourglass gaunts I use in class... but I don't consider that a permanent solution. All the rest of the ones I have are out of period. I can probably defer this for a little while too.

lol, don't worry, I'm still working on my early 14th C kit as well (yeah, I can't really call it 13th C anymore... maybe c.1300 roughly).

Man, that would be awesome. I'll be in contact soon probably. :)
