In every set of armor, the breastplate is the core piece that brings everything together. This customizable pattern gives you the starting design that you can incorporate into an existing cosplay, or create something entirely new. Add your own styles, tooling, dyes, paints, and other design elements for a truly customizable experience and create the cosplay or costume of your dreams. Watch our past and future tutorials and videos for ideas on how you can make your armor projects over the top. These breastplate patterns can be made from leather or can be made and mocked up alternatively with foam, card stock, worbla, and more.
This design is intended as a unisex breastplate and has room in the chest section for comfortable wear for both men and women. If you would prefer a female breastplate we do have that available HERE as well. The sizing can be adjusted easily by scaling the pattern and adjusting the side plates.
The patterns include a PDF pattern that can be printed on any printer (Use tiled pages). A FREE step-by-step instructional video is available for this and other projects as part of the How To Make Armor series by Prince Armory. Follow the series to learn more armor components and leather working techniques. Although this design is Fantasy in theme, the function is very real. Watch the early part of the video to see a basic demonstration of how it articulates. As long as you adjust the scale and fit properly, it will be incredibly comfortable and functional.
