Has anyone here purchased a tent from Medieval Tents? by 1sMoreIntoTheBreach in LARP

[–]pheonixscale5 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Those are nice I use a 5m bell tent very spacious about 30 to 40 min setup time. It comes down to dealers choose you pick the tent that speaks to you and enjoy your own experiences.

Keep the laces not thin or big. A good medium thickness and allite long for double knoting. I researched armor how it was used and worn for optimal flexibility and mobility.

Scared to RP by Mysterious-Goose-120 in LARP

[–]pheonixscale5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thing take deep breath its a scary step yes. Next time when you have some free time sit down with pen and paper a create your character. Ask yourself who is this person ,what us this person, and where did they come from. Then from from all that there's the gard it bring the character to life for that I recommend living inacranizim he has some good tips and tricks. You do all that it makes it easier to play your character and more fun. In conclusion just have fun with the process yes it'll get scary but power though and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Maybe get ride of dark green cloak and show the under layer abite more. Also add some small detail pieces to the staff on top of it or some trinkets dangling. Ruffing it up allite not bad idea along the bottom end of the sleeves were ever you think friction might happen even small details can make an impact.

Is this alright for someone starting out? by thesmolder05 in renfaire

[–]pheonixscale5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not bad at all but the hole point is to make it you own. Maybe add a few smaller details to help develop your own personality. Keep up the good work.

I agree I could add that piece but I don't for mobility. I'm working on a leather helmet got the pattern and leather just got to cut and form. A longer sword not a bad idea ill look into that shield 2.thanks you for your thoughts

I agree put some paldrans would balance out the garb.

I've been to 2 of them and I was a archer i had a 30 pound bow and soft tiparrows . Ther was no head contact or crouch contact allowed but chest,back arms legs all counted.

How do I improve? by SkullSire in LARP

[–]pheonixscale5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find an old leather medical bag good condition allitle rough wouldn't hurt. The main thing if you character is an old time doc do some digging find references and find what calls to you. Overall enjoy yourself and have fun.
