This was stuck in my head until I painted it out. Felt nice to paint my armour again.

Thank you. :D It helps that I have actual armourers and fighters in my life to yell at me when I get it wrong. :P If you help armour someone up enough times (I used to be a squire for tournaments when I wasn't selling swords) you get a really good idea of how it all comes together. I own the pauldrons, the gown, the armoured belt (some tassets, fully detailed), and one of the arms minus all the decorative work. My gorget is actually leather that I hand-tooled and we shaped to look more elven. Not practical, but it IS pretty. ;)

Yus, leather work can be crazy kinds of difficult but so worth it in the end.
