Squirrelly66 Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
handsw Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Squirrelly66 Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

handsw Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grey Drakkon Report post 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.
