Those two are actually cosplay. Characters from Bleach, unless I've gone completely round the bend. Good cosplay, though, tends to stand out in the sea of crap that you usually get.

Once again stolen from the armory forum.

All I can say is: Omg.

Not sure what you're trying to say there. Are you insinuating something? If so, I'm gonna pull a Krieger, and make too big a deal out of it on too many levels.

Meh... cosplay but noteworthy IMO...

And I just thought this was awesome...

Not LARP, but the quality and cuteness factor deserves a Special Mention

I'll try to link later, but here is a FB album with a bunch of the awsome European LARP photos (we've seen earlier in this thread).

That IS their life; they LARP normal lives, with jobs and mortgages.

Man this is some crazy stuff people have got just for LARP i kinda feel like goin to one of those just to see what people look like

This is the kind of gear you make and wear if you serious about this sport.
If you care about our organisation and want it to grow, or if you just want to look cool as **** instead of like a reject from a dork convention, you'll dress appropriately.

This sums up exactly why I am so * off when I go to events and see people -- especially veterans and people of means -- running around in sports bras and bare-minimum garb. You have to understand that I'm-wearing-a-skirt-and-that-is-enough-to-mean-I'm-supposed-to-be-a-monster is only "cool" to you and your friends inside the sport that feel the same way. To anyone considering making this a hobby, you're a total turn off. Your laziness keeps quality people from taking us seriously.

Here's to hoping these work-

The guy in the first video has a series of pictures on Facebook that are incredibly impressive. I came across these doing research for my own Teutonic Knight's persona for the SCA.

So far as I can tell, he's mostly accurate. The finger gauntlets are apparently off, because the Teutonic Order didn't use that style, but really, who the hell cares, and it looks * good.

The girl in this picture is actually a GMX Girl (mascot kind of person) for a con here in TN. She's a pretty cool girl. If I remember correctly, she recently started making armor.

Posted: **Fri Dec 09, 2011 1:20 am**

Heres a person who does some amazing work with animal pelts where she makes various things, especially headdresses out of them.

She also sells her headdresses, here is her etsy site: http://www.etsy.com/shop/NaturePunk?ref=seller_info

I think her work is amazing and she does other stuff as well that is really awesome. I think some people might like her work, since it can be some awesome garb. I have gotten a lot of inspiration from her work.

Posted: **Tue Jan 03, 2012 4:22 am**

Not LARP, but the "movie/TV show inspiration" thread isn't a picture thread. So tada, inspiration!

Posted: **Tue Jan 03, 2012 9:06 pm**

Honestly, I'm not inspired by that picture. What is it and why is it?

Posted: **Tue Jan 03, 2012 9:20 pm**

My Little Pony costume ideas. Because some folks have discussed MLP garb for the side of good in Monsterpocalypse vs. Crusadergeddon this summer.

Btw, this is supposed to be a constructive thread. So my question to you is this: what was the positive contribution of posting, "I'm not inspired by that picture."

Posted: **Thu Jan 05, 2012 1:28 pm**

i would LOVE to see MLP inspired good guy garb at CW. lololol. genius.

Posted: **Thu Jan 05, 2012 2:49 pm**

Adventure Time > My Little Pony

Don't get me wrong.
I'm excited that I can finally get away with watching MLP once my babby girl is born.
Don't tell my wife tho. lololololol

Posted: **Thu Jan 05, 2012 4:17 pm**

I'm sorry, I don't get the whole thing of grown men being interested in My little pony.

Posted: **Thu Jan 05, 2012 5:09 pm**

And half-naked barbarians with rippling pecs makes any more sense?

Posted: **Thu Jan 05, 2012 5:57 pm**

I'll take Conan over MLP any day. Second pic above is sweet btw, scale armor looks good with the chain.

Posted: **Thu Jan 05, 2012 6:32 pm**

I know rite? Do you know of the Varangian Guard? IE Norse who traveled thru Rus down into the Byzantium Empire and were hired to be the Emperor's bodyguards. I'm working on a Varangian Guard kit for SCA. Cedric, Kaegan and Aleksii all have or are working on the same. I think the scale lamellar coupled with the Norse style conical helm is dope.
I'm going to go for a 1200-1400 era Varangian, so I'll incorporate a medley of styles. I'm thinking splint-mail vambraces and greaves, leather lamellar and a hybrid conical norse style helm with oculars with a psuedo eastern feel.

Posted: **Thu Jan 05, 2012 10:12 pm**

God *. The first and third pictures there, hnnnng.

Posted: **Fri Jan 06, 2012 8:24 am**

Sounds badass Remy.

Posted: **Fri Jan 06, 2012 10:37 am**

Dude, they were called the Emperor's Wineskins.
How badass is that. You should look 'em up on wikipedia, for sure. so badass.

Posted: **Fri Jan 06, 2012 1:39 pm**

LOL, I did right after you mentioned them. Alcoholic axe wielding Scandinavians, who wouldn't want them as bodyguards?

Posted: **Sat Jan 07, 2012 9:26 am**

I need to get more into my kit so i can be a proper Varangian. got the armor just need to get more period fabrics involved, and more varied garb.

Posted: **Sat Jan 07, 2012 10:23 am**

Aleksii just got an Osprey book on the Varangians, I'm pretty stoked to get a change to browse thru it; I guess it's got some pretty legit ideas for garb. I think a lot of color might be a good start to varying your kit; Vikings loved bright colors.

Posted: **Sun Jan 08, 2012 9:40 am**

are you saying my red and black, or blue is not enough color

Posted: **Sun Jan 08, 2012 1:00 pm**

Yes. Needs more tie-dye. >;3 Check out this Swede's site, unlike most Deviant Art pages I find where I see something cool than upon perusing the resultant gallery find mostly lame/disturbing stuff, I like every thing this guys does. Pretty sick ****.

Let me know if y'all want to commission something pimpin'...

Or just want advice from a guy who sews linen and wool on the regular.

Posted: **Tue Jan 10, 2012 2:23 pm**

Word, word... I'll probably be hitting up yer links in Pthug's Garb thread, for sure.
I'm actually starting to get interested in Indian warrior garb especially Rajput and Sikh.
