Helmet Warrior
So impatient that I couldn't wait for a youtube lesson, so I'm trying to make this helmet just with the pattern.

Pretty simple pattern that has a lot of potential to be used in many ways. I made the whole helm and then made a different front piece for non-combat (display) purposes. The whole fantasy series is a great way to learn the ins and outs of leatherworking. I'd recommend ANY pattern from Prince Armory.
Great gauntlets - easy to modify
I needed one hand free of the finger armour and worked it all in to the beginnings of my Witcher armour

Such a great and versatile pattern! Had I more leatherworking experience, I'd have modified them a bit more and put my own flare on it, but I'm still quite new and learning so this pattern was great for me.
Any faults you see in the pictures are all on me - the pattern is very simple and easy to cut and put together. I'm 5'4" and they are just a smidge too high for me and not quite wide enough around my calves, but that's just a bit of adjusting I will do for my next pair. They fit nicely on my sneakers that I'll be using when I wear these.
One added note: these are A LOT of work for a newbie! I didn't expect to take on such a great project so soon but I don't regret it!

I started leatherworking specifically for this pattern and it did not disappoint. This pattern is easy to follow and the YT tutorials are very high quality. The pattern is easy to modify for design and size if need be (which I did). This is the first thing I’ve ever made with leather.

Pattern itself was relatively straightforward and easy to work with, though the video tutorial and Discord community are what really bump this site/pattern up to a 5 star rating, as that is where you can find the most help and information about order of operations, supplies, troubleshooting, and support. Would love to see more information about materials and hardware, as well as integration with other pieces of this set in the pattern, but not the worst stuff to figure out on one's own.
I do recommend making a mockup first to check sizing, as 100% worked fine for me, though we had to bump it up to maybe 120% for a friend with larger shoulders, (and even at 100%, can make for a fun helm, as seen in the first pic).
Made these in a 5/6oz veg-tan, and as this was my first real leatherworking project and I wanted to throw myself into the deep end of detailing, these took around 40 hours, though I suspect a simpler version without all the tooling would take a fraction of that.

Love this, easy to follow and size, I used cheap poster board to do a mock-up to make sure I had the sizing right. I found 90% size was great and transferred the pattern to leather. I can't wait to do the rest of the suit.
Wonderful options!

I was only expecting the straps for the one suit but received pages of different styles and sized of straps. Amazing designs for saving time or as templates to modify as needed. Great pack.

I'm new to working with leather and this was made it so easy. The way the pattern was formatted for printing on regular printer paper made it very convenient and the YouTube tutorial made assembly a breeze.

I own a leather shop and done so many leather projects but nothing like this one. I love challenges and the more advanced the better. I hope you enjoyed the work I did with your fantasy armor patterns! Please see attached picture.
Thank you for the challenge and I look forward being challenged again!
