The form of the armour is really nice... its a shame they're using a boat anchor for the sword. :)
Sword Chick:
I thought perhaps some of you would like to see how far my kit has progressed. Oh, and I'm the one in yellow. :)
Sir Edward:
It's coming along very well! I think it's awesome that you managed to get the arming cotte and gaunts to both have your yellow color.
What are you thinking about adding next? Mail fauld perhaps?
Sword Chick:
Yeah, I hadn't realized how great the arming cotte and gauntlets looked together until I saw the photos this morning. I'm knock dead gorgeous, even if I do say so myself. Pun intended as well. :D
I do think a mail fauld would be a great next addition.
It sure is humbling though. Last night was the first night I had everything on and my body just couldn't figure out how to move. I thought I knew all those techniques, but what I thought I knew certainly wasn't what was showing up in practice. :-[
Sir Edward:
Yeah, until you get used to how it messes with your weight distribution, it does tend to surprise you the first couple times you put it all on and try to do anything. The changes in center of mass, and the extra weight on your extremities kinda throw you off.
It was humbling for me last night as well. The voiders resist me lifting my arms, and combined with the weight, I was feeling unusually weak when we were doing all the high-guard stuff. As in, I think I need to lift weights regularly to compensate for that. Yikes.
But really, I think your kit is looking great, and the yellow is very striking. Knock em dead! :)
