Excellent costume, I like what you did with the chain mail, did the middle section work well?
Yes, it worked great! Nobody was the wiser, and it was that much less chain I had to weave. I just put about 2 dozen eyelets into each end of a heavy cotton tube and hung the mail from it.
Yep. In one case at least. This is from the Weapons and Warfare book:View attachment 227187 and mine: View attachment 227188
Fantastic!!! this is just amazing, as soooo much details. I am blown away! Can I ask what material you used to create the horse detail on top of the pommel?
Grey Pilgrim, Once again THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart! I realized you were sooooo busy and knew when you were able to catch your breath after the show, you would respond I sure appreciate EVERYTHING!! THANKS again!!!Ah! Sorry I missed this. In the last few days before I left I was doing nothing but working on this, eating and sleeping. For the pommel, I cut a rough semi-circular shape from a few layers of MDF, glued them together, and carved them freehand with a dremel. Then I put on a layer of wood glue and then rub-n-buff (which didn't really work because the surface was still pretty porous). For the cross-guard horse heads, it's super sculpey that I then hit with a heat gun to harden.
