Members Squirrelly66 Posted August 9, 2015 Members Report Posted August 9, 2015 I've still got a ways to go and 12 days to get it done. I'm working on the crotch plates and boots right now. I still have the helmet and weapons to do. All the edges are double loop lace with either sweade lace or 2mm cord. The neck hole is Mexican round braid with swaede lace. Thank You Squirrel Quote
Members handsw Posted August 9, 2015 Members Report Posted August 9, 2015 Ther armor is great but the first thing that comes to my mind when I saw it was an elven armor. I don't know which is your reference model (maybe a skyrim armor?) but the green color is classically not associated with an orc armor. Quote
Members Squirrelly66 Posted August 9, 2015 Author Members Report Posted August 9, 2015 Google Skyrim Orcish Armor and go to images. I'm using reference pics from there and from the video game. Thanks ChiefFilipino Quote
Members capsterdog Posted August 9, 2015 Members Report Posted August 9, 2015 Looking good Squirel, Like the colors too. Your fingers must be sore from all of the lacing!!! Quote
Members handsw Posted August 9, 2015 Members Report Posted August 9, 2015 In fact the armor is the same (so you have done a good job ), mine was only an opinion about the color in general. Quote
Members Colt W Knight Posted August 9, 2015 Members Report Posted August 9, 2015 My fingers hurt just looking at all that lacing. Quote

Members Oldtoolsniper Posted August 11, 2015 Members Report Posted August 11, 2015 And I laced a can koozie and thought that was a lot of work! I Salute you sir! Quote
Members Squirrelly66 Posted August 28, 2015 Author Members Report Posted August 28, 2015 There will be updated pics of the full costume on Saturday. I hope you all will enjoy them. Quote
Members Grey Drakkon Posted August 28, 2015 Members Report Posted August 28, 2015 ::cough:: suede ::cough:: Seriously though, super slick! While the color intensity is a bit bright, hopefully it'll tone down with age and sunlight. The problem with fresh Orc armor is that it's not nearly banged up enough. That much lacing is amazing, I think I would have started gnawing on it halfway through out of frustration. Quote
