Post your winter projects!

We are well into the fighting season in much of the country so let's see what each other made while huddling inside from the cold winter.

Some GS color sleeves commission:

I made a glove for my sword hand. It's a pocket brig design with armor grade leather. I added the thumb protection later. There's still some work to do but it's almost done.

Hey Arrakis, last shield, those are Clan Blackwolfe colors (minus the yellow).

Great looking work on those. Like the mini heater shield.

Thanks! Dark Green and Black are, to my knowledge: House Dregoth colors, Horde colors (with white), Clan Blackwolfe colors, various individuals colors, plus probably a dozen other units I can't think of off the top of my head. It seems to almost be the default.

Hmmph... thanks for the info. Out here in SoCal seems the conforming color scheme for non-conformist and 'badboys' is black and red.

Sword Coast colors are Dark blue, lite blue, green and black.

I made this stuff. Plus a warskirt, but it wasn't done for this event.

I think this kit makes me look like a proper monster. It wears very well too.
I'll try to find more recent pictures and add them.
