The first time I have ever done any leather work and I think it turned out very well. The tutorials were very easy to follow and, when I did need something clarified, I received a response right away.

After measuring one of my kid's shirts I determined at what % I needed to print the pattern.
Having then taped and cut out the paper pattern I made a paper mock-up of the top-most parts for my kid to try on.
I decided that the finished product should be slightly too big for them because I didn't want them to outgrow it within weeks.

Because I own no leather-working tools or materials I used sewing materials. I cut the pieces out of Decovil (a non-woven iron-on interfacing with a sturdy, leather like handle); ironed them onto a quilted cotton jersey and cut that out with a seam allowance; folded under the seam allowance and whip-stitched it to the back of the Decovil.
Instead of riveting the pieces together I first added decorative studs where visible rivets would be and then sewed the pieces together at the relevant points. For closures I used velcro because that makes it easier for them to put it on and take it off by themselves.
Because the breastplate would be too big for them at the moment, I have not yet added all the pieces at the bottom.

The pattern is easy to use. I appreciated the YouTube video because it made planning my approach with slightly different materials much easier. I love that I was able to easily size the pattern to my needs.

This was a great pattern, my second one with Prince Armory. Details are great and help you to know what you need to do. The videos are an added bonus. Keep making great patterns!! Thank you

Amazing and fun to do. Just a great pattern overall!! Plan on doing the Eleven Helmet next and then the Mando Helmet. Both a little more challenging.

I've been working on this one since before Christmas......

I adapted the pattern to use as a protective cover for my Motorcycle Helmet.

This is the base pattern +5% then had to work out the best way to close the back up and add a little bottom extension.
I will be starting to design a face shield that will be attached via press studs and a flip bracket.

Once I saw this pattern, I had to get it! It definitely has that Final Fantasy feel to it and it's a must buy. Construction was very simple and straight forward, very little need to make any changes. I had to make a few educated guesses during the process. I had to think like the author "How would he do it..." but all in all... Get this pattern. It's a work of art.

Ok since I can't update my post this deserves a new one. The pattern was great after I got the printer to work right. with no instructions, I was still able to pull it off and pretty well if I do say so myself.
