You're a good dude for letting people sell pieces made from your patterns. I believe in CC and open source trade skills and learning paths for people... Everyone forgets that learning these skills takes a ton of time and dedication and if you cant sell what you make then what are you supposed to eat? Air? You gained yourself a new subscriber and fan of your work. Thanks dude.
I got a leatherworking starter kit for christmas! I cannot wait to start making armor and other goods. I am hoping to do a Geralt of Rivia kaer morhen armor, and you were the one who really got me wanting to start making armor. Thanks man! I am excited for the journey.
my wife got me my set last year. it has been such an awesome journey from just trying all the stamps and other tools. I too am building my set of armor. aslo i have been selling small things to pay for the hobby. bracelets , wallets and i have made some masks to. good luck and never be afraid to ask for advice i learned alot from picking the brains of anyone who would talk leather with me.
Ya know, when I was purchasing the fantasy armor bundle I saw the knight helmet pattern and thought, 'wow, that is super intricate, you'd probably need a laser cutter for that', lo and behold, here we are.
WOW!!! it looks incredible man... and i dont know how many ppl said this, but it looks like Rey Misterio Jr mask, but again, the craftmanship is amazing!!! O_O
I want to get into leather work so bad but unfortunately being an adult and having kids means I have no money left for myself but watching someone else do it just as good thank you for the videos
you should make a limited numbered 500 or 5000 run kit for all your designs ... all laser cut raw pieces with all rivets and tools from weaver as well as the link to the video on youtube then you just color , assemble and display/use
That is beautiful.. I’m working on trying to get my wife interested in being a live model for me .. I can’t wait to try doing some leather working . I love steel but leather can keep me in the house when it’s snowing outside .. ( non heated shop )
When I built my fantasy helmet, I found it worked quite well to use chicago screws for the hinge points. I also added snaps at the jawline to secure the visor, and a 1/2" wide chinstrap to secure the helmet. The rivets for the strap are hidden beneath the visor overlap.
Would You in Your kindness briefly explain what it is that You use as dauber in 8:17? Looks like either a piece of sponge or a seriously swamped paper towel... Thanks so much for the videos!!
As a Glow Forge owner I was wondering if you have considered going back and creating a laser cut pattern for previous patterns that you have done? Love your work and I can't wait to get started on this project!
It's possible but I would have to see some pretty serious demand for it before investing the time to convert for laser. We'll see how these imperial knight patterns do.

I just got back on the interwebs and your video is the first I watched! Thanks for all you do, and once I've got my tiny house and leather studio built, it's game on! Keep up the great content! Happy New Year! 🌃 🖤🦇
Yep, most of the patterns are designed to be easily scaled when printing. You always want to make a test print first and assemble a mockup first though.
It may seem like a challenge but it's definitely possible to cut even complex things like this by hand. But if it's not your style there will be other themes in the future as well.
@@Princearmory I actually kind of prefer this design to the first helmet design just becaus it looks less bulky. When i wear the full suit the visor and the gorget sometimes get "entangled" i guess. Think i actually might be making this one in the future! Keep up the great work ;)
Great, glad you like it, I do spend a lot of time trying to figure out a good vibe for the music. I don't expect everyone to like it but its nice to get good feedback all the same.
Awesome video ! I already made gloves, and the first fantasy helmet, but it is impossible to resist to this one! Do you have a rough idea of how many leather part I shall need?
Wow that is amazing, been following since the start of the fantasy armor series, how much time saving is there in cutting with the glowforge vs cutting by hand?
@@Princearmory oh one more thing, I follow another TH-cam leathercrafter "little king goods" and he also uses a glowforge to cut finished leather but uses what looks like an 8 or 10 inch roll of masking tape as a sacrificial layer on the leather so there are no scorch marks. Maybe something that might help you.
I immediately went to buy that planishing steak as I've been looking for it to help me with my wetmolding. Then I saw the price.... wow, out of my league!
Yeah I get that. But if you make money from your work, often the tools that seem cost prohibitive now become indispensable later on. I save so much time by having this little planishing set handy, I love it. I definitely place it high in my early investment recommendation for armor making.
Hey, yeah if that's your preference go for it. There is no right or wrong and you're free to do whatever you want if you want to make it. And each new pattern theme I put out will have different color scheme so you may get your wish!
This is really cool but I'm wondering that won't the leather get in the nose's way? Like idk I'm confused, won't it hurt the wearer's nose? Can anybody answer?
I know a fair number of people that have Glowforges, and it seems that most of them have come to the conclusion they'd have been better off getting a larger and more powerful machine, like a Universal or Epilog.
I got a larger machine first years ago and if I had it to do over at this point in time I would go with the Glowforge first. There is a huge convenience factor in the size when combined with the air filter you can get with it so you can put it inside your main work area. Love it and it will pay for itself in time saving on buckle straps and small bits alone. If you do a lot of large scale work though, then yeah it will definitely make more sense to go for a bigger machine. It really depends.
uhmm... excuse me, i think you broke youtube.... :D at the beginning when showing the armor, because of the armor sheen it looks kinda weird/pixelated, i guess the armor has a lot of texture and that combined with it being shiny broke youtube's way of showing the video. the armor looks amazing and i'd love to craft a set like this or similar
not finished watching yet but, please dont run your laser at 100% much do multiple passes on a lower setting like 60-80%, co2 lasers don't like 100% power, you will degrade the life of the laser tube 2-4 times faster. i have run a laser cutting business for 3 years now and trust me it helps, also try adding masking tape to both sides to stop any of the chemical leach into the leather that may discolour it.

Would it be possible to add a video showing the process of adding a visor inside of the helmet.
I have seen another youtuber useing a laser cutter and one of his tips was to wet the leather before laser cutting the results was less scorching.
Yes! Stoked for a new series! I like the last one very much!
Thank you!
I want to get into leather work so bad but unfortunately being an adult and having kids means I have no money left for myself but watching someone else do it just as good thank you for the videos
wow i love the laser cutter very precise and efficient ... and awesome to see another series of leather armor set ... love them all and great videos

This is so cool. You can make such interesting stuff so much faster
Thanks!
Can you make a tutorial for wet forming muscles in a leather cuirass?
Seriously you’re so underrated
Great work!
Yet again well done sir!
Thank you!

I bet your making a shield next!
Shield is hard to make with leather. They are always floppy
I bet not yet but at some point I will.
@@Princearmory I would love to see it one that🌟
Excellent work!
Thanks much!
Can you make a tutorial on the warlord one/the one on your website PLZ. Really want to make one but don't know how.
Looks amazing, as always! I can't help but wonder what that smells like, though...
Great video! Excellent work God bless

@@ImDBatty1 Thank you!
looks cool,
are your patterns adjustable to different headsizes?
Yep, most of the patterns are designed to be easily scaled when printing. You always want to make a test print first and assemble a mockup first though.
Great job
Looks amazing! ;)
Made a ton of your patterns before, but lasercutting is kinda out of my league so meh :P
Still really cool though :D
It may seem like a challenge but it's definitely possible to cut even complex things like this by hand. But if it's not your style there will be other themes in the future as well.
@@Princearmory I actually kind of prefer this design to the first helmet design just becaus it looks less bulky. When i wear the full suit the visor and the gorget sometimes get "entangled" i guess. Think i actually might be making this one in the future!

I wonder how many rivets you used for this build
Do you sell your own creations to people who cant do this kind of work but would love to own it
if we don't have a laser printer is there a pattern that is more simple for us hand cutters?
I like your background music😂👍
Great, glad you like it, I do spend a lot of time trying to figure out a good vibe for the music. I don't expect everyone to like it but its nice to get good feedback all the same.
please make rathalos armor
there will be many cool themes coming in the future, stay tuned!
Here's a question for you.. if a person wanted could the visor area be modified to include something like a reflective or dark colored faceshield?
Does the type of leather differenciate? İf it does, what kind of leather do you use?
Awesome video ! I already made gloves, and the first fantasy helmet, but it is impossible to resist to this one! Do you have a rough idea of how many leather part I shall need?
Just wondering, have you thought about making saurons armor from lord of the rings. That would be nice to see.
cool stuff
Hello just purchased this pattern but it’s printing out pretty small. ? And suggestions
Yeah head over to the academy site and check the FAQ which gives you pointers there.
I've heard using masking tape can reduce the burn marks
What dimensions it's the helmet? Or head size?
Wow that is amazing, been following since the start of the fantasy armor series, how much time saving is there in cutting with the glowforge vs cutting by hand?
Depends how you look at it. Considering you can work on other things while it does it's thing, its kind of like it doesn't take any time to cut.
@@Princearmory oh one more thing, I follow another TH-cam leathercrafter "little king goods" and he also uses a glowforge to cut finished leather but uses what looks like an 8 or 10 inch roll of masking tape as a sacrificial layer on the leather so there are no scorch marks.

Hello! What’s that absorbent towel you have under your pieces as you’re dying? I never dip dye my leather because it just goes everywhere
ok, the pattern IS amazing, but what about the music in the video. anyone know what it is??

You should use other colours other than black as an accent. Black hides the cool shadows that would be cast by the segments.
Hey, yeah if that's your preference go for it. There is no right or wrong and you're free to do whatever you want if you want to make it. And each new pattern theme I put out will have different color scheme so you may get your wish!
love
Thank you!
Maybe because I'm on a mac but none of the pictures show when I go to your website.
How is there no Darth Vader Helmet? Would love to see one
This is really cool but I'm wondering that won't the leather get in the nose's way? Like idk I'm confused, won't it hurt the wearer's nose? Can anybody answer?
