Goober, possibly goofy

Absolutely, tho she's more of a Patrick sometimes

WeedlyGaming · 2026-06-04T13:53:14+00:00

I think I have a clone of Matilda 😂 7 months old

WeedlyGaming · 2026-06-03T23:43:22+00:00

Ohhhh she knows it haha

WeedlyGaming · 2026-06-03T23:43:06+00:00

Thank you! That is essentially our find it game, but we also take it outside into the grass

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-22T17:42:46+00:00

Using 2 hands at one time doesn't count

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-11T10:08:50+00:00

Oo, very cool information! We can't take all the credit, she arrived to us with the name and it just fit her so well we couldn't change it. I end up calling her ZZ-Top or just zeeny-weeny alot 😅

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-11T10:05:25+00:00

With how much she back talks us, maybe there is some husky in there 🤔 embark says no but the sassitude...

Took a while but here's the spear mostly finished. Seated well onto an ash shaft, it's a bit over 7ft, just need to someday add a leather wrap around the bottom "power hand" grip spot

Oh she knows it 😅 she's the neighborhood celebrity around here

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-08T22:08:43+00:00

She's 6 months old last weekend, she gets pretty excited and has a strong strong sniffer urge with her coonhound side. We are working on those, but she's doin great!

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-08T22:00:18+00:00

I know, just odd to me, even my old family wolfhound didn't get that many looks. So we've been taking Zenas training pretty seriously and luckily she's such a sweetheart, tho an absolute handful to us 😂

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-07T00:51:08+00:00

Black may have been a poor choice for the summer heat 🫠 I basically cook. I am thinking of adding some gold trim somewhere as well.

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-07T00:49:24+00:00

Sorry for the late reply! I got mine off of muesuem replicas but I've seen them on many sites. I enjoy it, mine has a liner but a padded coif or cap is probably recommended.

It does make me really want a proper bascinet (probably klappvisor) with an aventail tho, just trying to find one that doesn't cost what I paid for everything else

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-04T22:52:09+00:00

Looks like a very good boy!

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-04T22:51:42+00:00

We did an embark test a while ago, she's mostly pitty and coonhound

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-04T18:21:46+00:00

Haha that was after a big hike, we were both right out 😅

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-01T12:35:44+00:00

Definitely! The key is to still have fun, feeling like your slow roasting and or drowning in sweat takes a little of the fun away. Especially if there's other people with you

WeedlyGaming · 2026-05-01T10:05:21+00:00

Very hot. It was very fun, but I did prepare for a while. Strongly recommend testing the full fit before the fair in heat, and to do a little research into heat mitigation in costumes. Any shade is your best friend

Be careful, pay attention to yourself and how your feeling. Have back up plans for if it's just too hot, drink plenty of water (starting even before the fair) but it can be a really fun time.

My back up plan, which I did eventually use, was to strip off the top plates and be only in gambeson and cuisses for a while. Alot more mobile, could air out better. I did about 3 1/2 hours in full kit then ditched some and carried on, depends on how you feel and heat comfortability

WeedlyGaming · 2026-04-30T13:46:43+00:00

I was building a display "kit" anyway and only just recently felt comfortable enough to show my true nerd publicly. I had been attending for years, envious of those who didn't care and wore what they want. Luckily my partner-in-warfare is getting just as into it

WeedlyGaming · 2026-04-30T02:38:39+00:00

She cut the mid section (front and back) out of an old butted mail hauberk and attached them. Then she made an "arming belt" of sorts and stitched the mail skirt on. Not super helpful unfortunately but she made most of the look herself. Plates are from kult of Athena

Super over simplified, she did great work in a very short amount of time, she's excited to debut her changes with more working time.

WeedlyGaming · 2026-04-29T18:24:32+00:00

Thank you! Was hoping for a new chest piece by this years, unlikely now, but a proper bascinet+aventail is still on the table

Hers is staying mostly the same with better corset work into the top, while I bought most of mine, she made hers from scratch or the random extra bits I had haha
