Kim's LARP armour ideas

My son has joined up with Warsong LARP. It looks like it might be fun so I thought I might look at putting together a rig.

Helmet

Shoulders

Chain Haubergene

Not sure about arms, legs etc.

Introduction

This blog is just a place for me to store information about making LARP and metal weapons reenactment armour. I intend to list some vendors I have used for various things and notes about a project or two.
