Heres An Outfit With A Bunch Of My Personal Pieces. Most Of These Things I Havent Posted Online Before.

Here’s an outfit with a bunch of my personal pieces. Most of these things I haven’t posted online before. The occasion for me wearing these was the anniversary party at the Wildfire Retreat this last weekend. (Wildfire is a spinning arts event that happens a couple times a year in New England. It has lots of juggling workshops and fire spinning.)

The shirt is made primarily of black anodized aluminum and black neoprene rubber, with an insignia inlaid into it made of blackened stainless steel. The pattern is a European 4-in-1 weave. When I made it originally I ran out of rings before being able to fill in the back completely, but I kind of liked it like that. So I have a pile of more rings sitting in my basement in case I decide to do that.

The horned headband is similar to this one, but with more horns.

The leather thing on my left arm was something I made the day I got a strap cutter. It links together with snaps, and was a lot of fun, but the sizing was super specific so I haven’t bothered offering it to the general public.

The arm bands and collar are your typical goth spike type of item. I thought I’d put them up on my Etsy, but it looks like I hadn’t. I don’t usually make much of a point of keeping those spikes in stock, though, so that’s probably fine.

The belt is in stainless steel in a Persian 6-in-1 sheet weave. It’s a very thick weave with a really nice texture and some interesting bending physics. It’s also the most time consuming weave I’ve ever made anything substantial out of. It took about an hour for every couple inches.

The rainbow tail is maybe the only of these things I’ve posted before. Here it is in another post. The diamond-shaped spade tip is made of birch plywood.

A quick scale bracelet someone bought off my etsy page. I liked the color pattern, so I'm posting it up for people to see. 

Hi! I was curious, what size scales do you use for your tails? The all look so amazing btw!

Thank you! I use the Large sized scales from The Ring Lord. (Though I just got some of their Extra Large scales that they made a batch of, and I’m super excited about making something with them.)

My submission for Magic Meat Week! It’s a Tumblr celebration of fantasy males in empowering outfits of the style that fantasy women get stuck wearing. I made this set of leather armor over the last week. The codpiece I had already designed, I just needed to make a new copy. The shoulder armor (spaulder), arm (bazuband) and thigh (cuisses I think?) are all new designs, though, and were designed and hand-cut this week. It was a busy week of designing, and it was great.

These things will be up for sale on my Etsy shop soon, but I’ll need to CAD up the patterns so I can make more with the laser cutter, and also take some photos with more clothes.

A hat band I made for a friend, which will be a gift to his father. Made of stainless steel rings in a European 4-in-1 pattern.

Working on an accessory to the dragon tails I make. It’s an extension of the tail up your back! (The commissioner had the idea.) It’ll be worn like a backpack. The straps snap on.

Here you see the underside of it, showing how the attachment works. I was happy to have figured out how to attach the leather pieces into the scales.

More photos of the whole thing once I finish up the tail that goes with this, and also make a fresh set of backpack straps. (These ones were cribbed from the tsundere shark costume I made for Halloween, which I still need to get nice photos of.)
