How To Build A Leather Armour From Scratch || For LARP And Other Costumes

In this video, we're going to show you how to build a leather armour from scratch. This armour is perfect for costumes, like for LARP, or for general use. In the first part we went over how to make a custom pattern, and in this video we will do all the building parts. I'm really happy with the result, it is definitely a larp armour I will get a lot of use out of. And this way of armour building is suited for pretty much every costuming purpose, whether it is cosplay or historically inspired costuming. It is also the first time I made use of a roller wheel instead of the standard carving, tooling and stamping leather and I like it. It won't be suited for everything, but it is a nice and quick way to add that tiny bit of detail an armour sometimes needs.
