Why do you make armor?

  1. 1. Why do you make armor?

    • So I can bump into things drunk at a renn faire with little concern for injury
    • The coming zombie apocalypse
    • I dont believe in drinking or zombies (and will be amongst the first to die)

Hello everyone... as it's proper to introduce yourself if you're new to a forum, so here I am.

I've made some cool stuff, some armor, braided flogs, and it's been fun. I'm looking to move up from flat black butt kicking armor to elaborate, ornate, really neato butt kicking armor. Just about everything I have done is because Andy of ARM Leather got me interested. I blame him for alot.

I've attached a picture of my basic armor stuff I've done... it was my first effort, be gentle.

We don't kill newbies on LW. We welcome them. We even warn them against eating the donuts, or they may be the first to die! But the coffee's good and safe. Johanna keeps it fresh. Lots of renn faire types around here. Some amazing armour from Prince and a few others. Glad you are here!

Sweet. I admin a forum as well.. so I make everyone be nice too! :) Then again, i figure leather making types are a bit more civil than the car modification crowd (unless you have a large contingent of adolescent wanna be race car drivers here? ha!)

I'll be nosing around to check out everyones stuff shortly.

btw denise, you didnt vote! how rude!

deft, , I don't make armour and have never been to a renn faire so I felt totally unqualified to vote. However, if you had a category that was "I like ice cream", I probably would have voted for it! (How's that for an excuse?? :) )

I'll put you down for "among the first to die".

naw, that was for the zombie apocalypse... i imagine with so many swords... the renn faire might be safest.

this entire conversation has become even too surreal for me, and i wear costumes at least twice a month. go figure.

....and I hear that Ren Faires are just ordinary people getting together to have a good time.......:rolleyes2:

Welcome to LW.net! You did good by including a pic; we like it when new members read the rules :).

And no, I didn't vote either. I don't drink, so I don't need that excuse, and I've only been to one faire, and it was only to visit friends after it had closed for the day. They were all drunk and bumping into ME.

As for the ZA....I have other plans, like figuring out a way to tan zombies. I figure it'll be hard to get cow hides, and there'd be less shipping involved. Besides, metal makes better armor. Preferably about a ton and a half of self propelled armor.
