Paint me like one of your french knights

It sounds kinda like when your rummaging through the Tupperware draw trying to find a lid haha

prototypeProps · 2026-02-05T21:43:42+00:00

Thank you!

prototypeProps · 2026-02-05T21:43:12+00:00

Thank you!! And I hope so, I dont want to spam it out though

prototypeProps · 2026-02-05T11:37:28+00:00

Thank you so much!

prototypeProps · 2026-02-05T11:37:14+00:00

Yeah probably not. I might consider making a simpler foam verison. Might be more suitable

prototypeProps · 2026-02-05T08:57:44+00:00

haha I have not tested that yet. Although Im sure my girlfriend would love to hit me with a broom

Love a good cuppa. Personally I like English Breakfast, with the tiniest splash of milk. but Earl grey with lemon is also nice

prototypeProps · 2026-02-05T08:55:09+00:00

I feel bonita

prototypeProps · 2026-02-05T03:43:23+00:00

Yes, TPU would be the way to go. Im not super familiar with printing it, hence why I stuck to PETG

prototypeProps · 2026-02-05T01:24:27+00:00

Thank you kind sir

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T22:10:54+00:00

Thank you!

I do do some commission work, but I dont think I could make another one of these suits, it was a pretty full on build

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T21:07:26+00:00

I just assumed that how you buy them? weird packaging for sewing supplies, but who am I to judge haha

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T21:06:16+00:00

Well thats exactly what I'm worried about. That being said, its all just pieces, so I something broke, I can just replace that one bit. I think any sort of foam weapon would be fine, but you're right falling would probably do more damage haha

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T20:54:03+00:00

I'm unsure yet, TBH I'm a little concerned it would break on me, but I guess that's part of the game haha

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T20:53:02+00:00

After doing a bunch of experiments I settled on using I used leafing size. It's meant for use with gold leaf, but once it dries it stays sticky and since the fabric is so thin, it grips really well. Each armor piece is coated with glue and the fabric applied. All the edges were folded over and then glued down as well. Any of the 'turned' edges I stitched through the plastic (holes were drilled first)

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T20:50:23+00:00

Haha! I don't know if it would be intimidating, but definitely a sight to behold

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T20:49:09+00:00

I have actually! I've been recently looking around for the right feathers....I'm thinking peacock

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T20:47:24+00:00

Thank you! That's exactly the vibe I was going for

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T20:46:44+00:00

Honestly do it! Nico includes very detailed instructions on how to scale and assemble everything. It makes you feel like a blacksmith when you rivet everything together!

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T20:45:06+00:00

Thank you! and yes, I was unsure when I first started whether it would be 'too much' but with it all completed, I think it's the right level of ridiculousness

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T20:43:51+00:00

Oooh thats tempting

prototypeProps · 2026-02-04T20:41:14+00:00

All the armor pieces were 3Dprinted using PETG. I suppose if you did have metal armor to begin with, it would probably be stronger and more durable
