Koutetsu Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Hey guys. I'm a fairly skilled artist, and am getting into smithing for the first time. I'm pretty green when it comes to metalworking, but i figure i have a while to learn the skills. I plan on making Medieval era arms and armor, and working on my own tools and equipment around the farm. Advice, tips etc. are all very welcome.

ThomasPowers Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 May I commend to your attention the forums at armourarchive.org (yes the british spelling of armour). Also get "Techniques of Medieval Armor Reproduction" aka TOMAR *FIRST*! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
