metal lined arm bracer & cuff

[Dreadhead]

My good pal who sourced me the free reindeer leather loves coming up with commissions for me so that he gets presents everytime he comes round. so this time it was a bracer and a cuff. they are made with veg tan backing and the reindeer leather on top. in between is sewn three lengths of metal.

i think the basis being...in the event of zombie apocalypse/bar brawl/arm wrestle with arnie he will be prepared with sturdy wrists!

so this is what i came up with. nothing fancy really just a laugh to make

Hopefully zombies won't be equipped with any strong
magnets! Excellent work as usual , even on this Swords & Sorcery
kit. Nice one Hamish

Brilliant friends you have Hamish keeping you busy ^^.
But great job on those bracer and cuff, I'll be making an archery glove and a bracer for friend if I get myself around to it too someday soon
but just need to get myself off of that darned school for a couple a days, darned dealines.
Yours sincerely, a joyful spectator, Ruud

They look amazing matey, they should work a treat against this pesky zombies. I never considered the magnet though! Hopefully won't be attacked by a zombie magneto indeed. Going to have to think up more weird commissions for you. The measuring process wasn't very fun though, a bit too close quarters and intimate for my liking, dreading the chest measuring
