My new leg armour, and a fitting for the breastplate
You are getting this a day early, before the rest of the world sees it.
The armour you are financing is taking shape, and so far I'd say that the shape is good. Here I pick up my finished leg armour, and after the final adjustments on it are made, I get to take it home. I am also fitted for my back and breast plates. There is some Wagner.

Things I'd like to see you do in the armour? Obviously, The Lindy-Hop. If the Knights of the Round Table can dance ( c.f. Monty Python/Holy Grail ) you can.
It's looking great BTW!
Things to do in your armour? Surely seeing how it handles whilst riding a horse?
Have you decided on a style of helmet?
Wow add armor to the list of things I need. Not want, need.
Now you will need a squire to help you put it all on. I can see how all this would add up. Beautiful style of armor to be sure.
Hi Lindybeige. Right now I'm just a follower of your patreon (because I'm a poor guy). I still get this update tho. Not that I mind, it is great :-) Is it meant to be that way or is it due to some mistake in some settings on your part. I really like your videos. I just don't want you to do something which is not intentional. Cheers and keep up your awesome work.
Go to a toy shop and buy a toy Knight.
Take a budget airline flight inside Britain whilst wearing the armour. No luggage just you.
Every boys dream! It will be so nice that I think I would never do anything in it that could muck it up.
Go swimming in a local pool in it, would love to see others reactions when you pass by. Also definitely do some dancing.
I've ruled out swimming for the foreseeable future. Even if I don't drown, it would ruin the leather parts.
Now all you need to do is brush up on your half-swording. I haven't seen much of you learning H.E.M.A and it would be most riveting (like the armour itself) if you avail yourself of some armoured combat treatises.
I wonder is it more dangerous or less dangerous to jump on a trampoline with full plate armor?
Lots of strain on the ankles.
Those are beautiful. You're going to look awesome when it's all complete and together; bit jealous here. Also I see you have your authenti-shoes on, well played.
Do the assault course with the armour, see how well it holds up in battle-like conditions. Have you decided what helmet you are going to use?
Some dancing in the full plate would be fun to see.
On the list.
Do all of those things. I especially want to see shopping though.
