Finished up most of the armor - knots, cords, gilting, etc.

Thanks for checking out the blog, and wishing you all the best.

  1. Looking good Dean. That lacing pattern website in the last post is really useful if I ever tackle Samurai.

    1. Thanks, Neil! Yes, that's an old, but very informative, site. The patterns go well on the older, o yoroi armor with lots of lacing and big sode. Kind regards, Dean

    1. Thank you very much, Joe. I'm posting the step-by-step process for my reference too - forgot how I did the original set of these so many years ago. They look similar overall, although I've gotten lazier and a bit sloppier. Warmest regards, Dean
