Need a bit help with a kit
Sir Wolf:
well 1200-1300 is a large span. not a ton of plate is involved yet. mostly still just mail hauberks, coifs and chausis, soupcan knees. if you moved your thoughts towards 1300-1360 you can do the splinted and plate pieces along with lots of mail. such as: mail hauberk, mail chausis, splinted or plate legs, splinted or plate arms, coat of plates over hauberk for body, and bassinets with aventails alone or with great helmets

CRAP! Those splinted rerebraces look great! :o
~ Hey Allan I think I’ll be adding to that custom work request I mentioned in my last PM to you! ;)
I also agree with Sir Wolf. You will definitely have to adjust your timeline into the early 14th C if you want to add splinted or plate pieces.
Allan Senefelder:
I did a pair of splinted rebraces for somebody like six yeras ago. I don't know if I still have the templates around, i'll look.
Sir Wolf:
ya you would do better to go with a splinted arm from Merc Tailor than those. I'm betting the leather isn't the best. that look definitely is in the 14th century hehe
Sir Brian:
Yeah it would have to be Allan’s work since 90% of my splinted stuff is from him, something along the same style has the vambraces, greaves and gorget I have now. :)
