[CRAFT] Art in Metal

[The Skarzs]

It's 3/16 in. thick; I'll have a heck of a time breaking it with my bare hands.

I still think that you should make a replica of Martin the Warrior's sword, but on a small scale like a letter opener. It'll make it easier (hopefully), AND a mouse would actually be able to wield it XD

Once again, I would love to attempt it some time.

[Lady Ashenwyte]

@Skarzs Well, you could do it with a good machete or dadao or axe or blah blah blah.

[The Skarzs]

What?

[Skyblade]

I saw the photos. They're really good Skar!

[The Skarzs]

Thanks a lot, Sky!

So. . . Here I can show you my extremely poor workmanship making armor.

(Mmmmm. . . Bulging biceps.)
The forearm guard is built like a tank, and even though it's not tempered, it can stop a good hit.
The gauntlet, however, is too bulky, the pieces poorly fit to each other, and the metal hardly thick enough to be much protection.
These are pretty bad, but they're a start.

Mmm...Bulging biceps...mmmm...


Well, at least you have the ability to make armor. And you're bound to improve.

[Rusvul]

Still, you built a gauntlet. The only armor I've ever made was shin guards... Basically that just involved cutting a stop sign (Don't tell anyone) and bending it.

[The Skarzs]

This isn't much better: It's heat ducting sheet metal. Of course, what I did was double that up, then put a layer of roofing metal on top (the brown metal) and riveted them all together. So it's really thick, and I feel like giving it a good whack with my machete.

Mmm...Bulging biceps...mmmm...

Thats awesome. And you actually built it! That's way father then I would have done!

[Hickory]

Same here! Doesn't help that you still gow out of armor... witch sounds weird.

[Lady Ashenwyte]

Nice armour. Have you ever tried to make a hoplite cuirass?

[The Skarzs]

Nope; I need some good sheet metal for something like that.

I was talkin' about something like this.

[The Skarzs]

Ah. No, I've never really been interested in doing something like that.

Ach, okay.
