Description Bright Aluminum chainmaille top, took me waaaaay to long to make.

Picture was taken in a photoshoot for the 2006 fe-maillers calendar.

Did you fabricate the links as well or order them?
Doesn't really matter you do great work, and the metal hightlights your frame ever so sweetly.

Nothing says kinky fantasy fantasy like a chain mail bikini. This is awesome. Watching a stunningly sultry beauty like you gracefully dance around must be quite a sight to behold. Makes a social deviant gamer grin.

Also, you made the chain mail yourself? That's pretty rad, it looks well made. Do you order your rings premade? Where do you get them and the jewler's pliers? I read some tutorials a while back but none really said how to get the parts, only how to weave the patterns.

i think this is amazing!!
i need something like this to stop me from getting all depressed from boredom!
looks like theres alot to learn though...
and just curious...did you have to make that to shape like a bra or was it done flat and drapes like a curtain??
i bet it would have been extremely rewarding when you finished!!

Thanks so much! It's fitted like a bra. There's "underwire" and seams to help it fit properly. It does take practice, but once you get into the groove it's just time consuming.

ladyofthemandalore [2007-10-31 15:08:54 +0000 UTC]

It's amazing! Is that Euro 6-1 or something else? I don't quite recognise the weave straight off.

ArmouredRaven In reply to ladyofthemandalore [2007-12-06 21:13:37 +0000 UTC]

It's Euro 4-1 with rings tweaked here and there for the boning and underwire effect.

Wow... I am just beginning to do a little metalworking, I wouldn't call it Maille-ing as yet but I am working on it... But Husband does some nice work, and so I know enough about the ins and outs to know how hard the seams and patterning are... it's gorgeous!
How do you get it on and off with such a... mailer'd (tailored) fit?

ArmouredRaven In reply to Julica [2007-12-06 21:22:52 +0000 UTC]

It clasps around the neck and around the back, Really easy to get on and off actually!
