"Longbowman" Armguard for Adam
« on: July 26, 2011, 12:44:45 am »
While I'm waiting for stain to dry, I figured I'd share a picture of an armguard I'm working on for adb.  He's going to what I think is a medieval rendezvous on Wednesday morning, and he asked me a while ago if I could make this for him to take along.  I'm really pushing the deadline on this one, but I think I can finish it up tomorrow night.  Gonna let the stain dry overnight and then seal it and put the finishing touches on it tomorrow.

Cam:  Very good workmanship!  I can tell you any time you carve a bow, arrow, point there will be our brothers of the bow looking for tiller, fletching, stacks, etc!  Anyway you have done this armguard proud!  A/Ho Joe
