Though it is slow going due to my work, this project has been awesome and very rewarding. Having the patterns makes this build so much easier than having to make it all on your own. So very grateful for the armor pattern, the price, and the assistance from the community in discord. Would totally recommend this to everyone I haven’t already recommended it too. Grace and peace to you all.

Great pattern!
Super easy for a beginner to use. I also like to repurpose things. So I made mine out of the leather from two purses.

This pattern is easy to work with and customize, I opted to not include the fingers for maneuverability but they wouldn't have been hard to add on at all. Great fun

The pattern holes never seem to match exactly correct but it could be how I print it. The cuirass turned out great. I didn't do a whole lot of tooling to keep it simple for my first project. I had to shorten the overall length of the bracers but they still came out good. The Spaulders were spot on.

Great Pattern
Lots of fun and pretty easy to build. Only my second pattern I've ever put together. Been practicing with stamping.

My husband and I are the king and queen of a local medieval festival. This year was the 30th year anniversary so I made his something extra special to wear. This armour set came out fantastic and the patterns were exceptionally easy to use! The online videos also made the process so much easier.
I'm ooking forward to the next project! Perhaps a set for myself ⚔️

This is my first piece of armor ever and this was SO MUCH FUN TO MAKE!! The pattern was amazing and easy to understand and assemble. The YouTube view tutorial was a lifesaver and definitely worth the time to watch and rewatch. If you are looking at this pattern and wondering... stop wondering, BUY IT, MAKE IT! It is a blast! I CANNOT wait to make the other patterns I've bought and also put my own spin on some of them! Thank you so much Prince Armory Academy!

First big leather project, and first time using a pattern. So far I've just done the breastplate. My only regret is getting too casual about cutting off FAR too much of the overlapping material where it buckles at the sides (Should have tested that on the foam mockup first). Was easy to follow along with the video. Looking forward to making more pieces!

This has been a demanding, yet very inspiring and satisfying project. After I finished the helmet, I wanted the entire suit of armor, so I got the templates and started on the torso right away.

As a pure novice this was a challenge. The first attempt used rivets, but as no size is listed, I got ones too large, and they snagged my hair. So I stitched the next one. I've since learned I have stitched it wrong, but I can probably take it apart and fix it. Still looks nice.

Pattern was great! The video to follow along was super helpful. I love the way it turned out. The only issue I encountered was the mismatched holes on the back plate but it was easily remedied by using the side pieces as guides. Definitely want to make more of these patterns!

Perfect Base Pattern for Geralt/The Witcher Armor

This was my first foray into leather working, cosplay, sewing etc, and between the patterns and the youtube videos, I'd say it was quite the success thanks to Prince Armory! I used this pattern and modified it to get the body armor just right. Had to design my own shoulder pauldrons, but still used the base pattern to help me understand basic mechanics on the shoulders, modded the body to fit myself (one must sit after all), and overall, very happy with it! My only issue, not with Prince was having to order leather online, and what I learned after finally driving several hours to a Tandy Leather a few months ago, is, it's worth the drive if you are new to leather and don't know what you are handling! What I was sold online as 8-9 oz was in reality more like 10-12, but was still able to create bc of this awesome pattern!

I’ve always wanted to make my own set of armor. The Warrior Set fit the bill for what I wanted. So far I’ve made the breastplate and pauldrons. The patterns and videos have made this an easy project. I’m looking forward to finishing this project and moving on to a more complex project.

I had a different experience with this pattern as I made adjustments to it and combined other patterns. My only wish is that the Prince would include the specific stamps he uses JUST IN CASE you want to do what he did. I understand not wanting people to just copy him and to explore their own options, but when you're just starting out like I am, I didn't know where to even get some of the crazy and cool stamps he uses. I had to hunt stuff down. Anyways, this is my first real leather project, and I'm excited to do more.
