Definitely looks good. The chestplate seems to have a decent shape ,clean and pro. Keep on good work. But may i ask you a question ? Where does the bottom of the chestplate end ? Before or after your belly button ? If it does end after it may obstruct your movement. Just sayng. Still looking good though.
Thank you!!! I appreciate it!Originally Posted by samwil0 Go to original post
I have been keeping in mind mobility. In my templates and design so far, I have made the arm holes bigger for better mobility.Both in the front and the back. In the screenshots I've seen, the lawbringer chestplate is super wide on the chest and goes from armpit to armpit. This is a huge problem for actual mobility. For honor can get away with this because it has magical video game physics where arms phaze into the armor freely. And for the torso, I have it stop just above my hip bones. In my experience this does stop you from bending over from the waist, but not necessarily stop you from moving comfortably.
Me with the plate on and no shirt. (also I got a haircut)

Thanks man! I am too.Originally Posted by chris.hayes151 Go to original post
I'm currently trying to figure out the pattern for the damn throat piece. Its putting up a real fight.![]()
Chark19 I have thought about that! I'm way down for that color scheme. I'm not 100% on how i'm going to paint it just yet. Definitely leaning toward an attacker scheme. Gotta love those reds!
PROGRESS TIME:
So I hate this piece.... it looks so badass yet so complicated to reverse engineer. In the picture below is the template for it. See how the midlines on each side don't line up? and not only that, but there is one slightly curved side and a straight side. At least several angles involved are 90`....
Being the poor person that I am, I used the same beer box that was for getting over the emotional curve of figuring this out, as is now used for figuring out the damn shape. Lookin good if you ask me.
Next i'll use the template and attach the actual piece.
So i've been thinking about what you said... I think that the torso piece may be too long. By a few inches atleast. I just might fix this. Depending on how motivated I am.Originally Posted by samwil0 Go to original post
