Description Ok, to make things slightly new, im tossing up a photograph of someone else for a change, still a Larp related picture though, so im sticking to the old naming trend.

This is just an example of how i think Larp armour should look, and generally look, in sweden.
As i understand it, other places tend to have larg variations on what to use to represent Metal armour.

my personal opinion.. nothing represents metal like, you guessed it.. metal.

Model: Frida (A dear friend, also my brothers girlfriend, and an avid larper )
Photographer: Quest Leite
Dude who made the armour: Martin Merkel

Ah, milady Paladin!  Art thou game for a little dungeon-delving to wipe out a nest of Orcs that's been plaguing the countryside?  

Aye, from my ropes, you can tell I'm a wizard (and yeah, I DO know how to use this staff!)

Badassed and beautiful, both the armour and the model Larp on, and Larp strong.

looks gorgeous especialy how women like she looks in it and still the armor looks functional and protecting

i agree to idea that metal things should be metal but its usualy not cheap to get them

well thats why i stick to cloth and leather mostly :3

hehe, im sure she'll appreciate hearing it : 9
yeah, its to bad its a little on the expensive side.. working ( together with my brother ) my way towards 2 sets of armor, so far we'v only gotten about one... and we'v been working on it for a while now.

Nice gear, although I think, it would look better with some kind of helmet.

I agree, that metal armor is best represented by metal...maybe with the exception, that some things like certain fantasy armor types. An example would be warhammer chaos armor, which looks partially organic.

there is a helmet to to the gear, but its not on the picture,but i think that the idea was too show of the girl a little as well, not just the armour

Snyggt!

Jag instämmer till fullo, inget liknar stål som just stål.

With all due respect to a lot of females out there, few make 'male' armor look good - but she can take it, from the looks of it, without looking butch

Very well done overall!
