Hello Friends! This was the most requested tutorial so far. How'd I do? What do you want to see next?!
@Taurusus5 жыл бұрын
That looks great! I got worried when you started riveting the top bits together, like, "... Did he forget this was going to be articulated?" But I shoulda known better than to doubt you! One thing I would appreciate is a guide to attaching non-leather materials to leather. Canvas and cloth primarily, but things like glass or plastic (for goggles, say, or like a phone holder, as much as these don't really seem to be the style you're going for on this channel) as well. I'm working on a pauldron, and my plan was to kind of sheath it around a cloth sleeve, but I'm struggling to come up with a good way to affix it due to my regretful decision to include a large lamellar section down the bicep. I was hoping to avoid sewing, but I fear it might be inevitable.

Greaves and tassets, please, to finish the set. As an amateur leather working enthusiast, I cannot tell you how excited each and every video in this series has made me. I look forward to these more than the release of the latest Marvel movie. I have no criticisms. Your videos are professional, concise, have excellent backing soundtracks, present all relevant information, and the purchased patterns that go with them are easy to print and use. My only request is for more. More armor. Please finish this set and, if possible, start a new one. Learning from these has been both fascinating and exciting. If you do want to introduce another armor set in the future, what would you think about upping the level to have people build a set with an intermediate difficulty level? I think after completing all these tutorials, your viewers may be able to take their crafting to the next level.

I'm very glad you mentioned sizing at the very beginning, because for armor (any armor) if you want a good fit you need to modify any pattern to fit your body correctly -- with loose fitting in mind. Suits should fit snuggly, not armor. Unless you're in the Matrix and your armor IS a suit.

I was racking my brains last night, trying to figure out how to make something I can actually move & sit down in (I'm building most of it from craft foam). I have a feeling if I make the main sections out of craft foam, then cover that with individual leather scales, it'll be stiff enough to keep its shape, but not too heavy or bulky.

I recently built the helmet as my first big piece and it shows off the best. Watching this video, I see you using the orange foam chunks for doing the rough-in work on dying. I find that the foam wedge brushes work quite well for edge work near the lines. They are cheap, disposable, and will hold a reasonably sharp edge, even after the spirits in the dye cause the foam to swell.

This is a high quality, excellent video! It's the type I was expecting you to do when I supported you through Patreon, but month after month went by with not a single tutorial offered to the supporters. I gave up after a while that I'd be able to learn anything from you guys. This gives me hope that I misjudged and withdrew my support prematurely. I'm excited to subscribe to your channel and will be watching again! BTW, I hate Tandy's new pricing system. I got the best prices previously, and now I just feel like I'm paying more for my raw materials! It's hard enough to make a profit on my work, without the materials costing me more to start with.

I'm sorry your expectations were not met but do keep in mind that even with patreon and sponsorships, that's only covering a fraction of my overhead to make these things. it takes time, equipment, and money and of course pulls time away from my custom projects as well.
