I know it's a little early to be thinking about your '25 #costume, but Happy #Halloween everyone!
Be sure to send this to someone who needs an early reminder 🤣

I know a lot is going on, take this little bit of #LEGO happiness for the road.
Made a set of LEGO #Earrings for my partner (her design idea). Sometimes the sweetest joy comes from #creating something simple.

A #ColdSteel #Training #Spear decorated up for a @FaireYoungHeroes #prop at #Faire!
Though good for practice, the rubber ball looks pretty cheesy, but I'm really happy with the 'cleanup' and paint job!

Played with the #LaserPecker #LaserEngraver a bit more!
This time a #leather #medallion for the #fake #FrogCult my #Belegarth #Realm accidentally started a few years back at #BattleForTheRing.
Having a lot of fun with this little 'toy'

I thought the progression of layers would be cool for some of you #artists out there!

Another pull from the old #LabyrinthMasquerade #CostumeDesign!
Not accurate to any culture, but inspired by the beautiful designs of #PreColonial #MesoAmerica with some #fantasy add-ons.

Another #Inspired piece that lurks in the depths of the #BanesArmory product cache!
Inspired by #Priestess outfits in various #JRPG #Anime etc. But not actually based on any specific region.

Spent the weekend in the #forest with some friends, and got some #flower #photos.
Originally to be a #LARPGame but life had other plans so we just hung out, had a #campfire & played #games like #MagicTheGathering.

Today a #DIY #PVCBow form!
Made from 2 specially cut pieces of wood and a hinge all you do is heat half the #PVC stave, insert and clamp closed to cool.
Repeat then use end #molds to press where the string sets.

#Legend has it this #dress still lurks in the depths of the #BanesArmory product totes!
Made as a one-size-fits-most piece inspired by #hitsoric box dresses, but fashioned as a single piece for easy washing & wearing.

A #Roman #Legionaire inspired #Scutum for a primary #antagonist faction in my #LARPGame #LostToTheAether.
#Custom made with 2-ply curved wood cores, canvas covered & painted. Not the most comfortable #Shields but #Iconic and effective!
#BanesArmory #LARPing #LARP #LARPProps
A simple #Machete #LARPweapon made for #DystopiaRising.
I love how the detail worked just by cutting most the pattern off the #FloorMat and leaving it in the grip.
#BanesArmory #LARPing #LARP #LARPProps #Apocalypse
Realm #Tournament #BeltFlags for #TheCursedBattalion!
#Felt #applique over a #canvas base these are a fairly inexpensive way to make displayable trophies!

More #characterart today!
Some #digitalart of a #dwarven #smith I made some years ago!
Not much to say, but I'm really happy with the #CostumeDesign of the composition.
#BanesArmory #Fantasy #LARP #Tolkien #DungeonsAndDragons
An old #DystopiaRising #commission #LARPWeapon inspired by a #TomCruise movie.
Designed 'accurate to life' - I believe modeled and shaped off the #apache #Helicopter tail #rotor.
Changes were made but the prop profile is modeled correctly!

A #SetPiece #Design for the #LabyrinthMasquerade #elves as a #magic #channeling #Lodestone.
This piece didn't make it to build, but I still love the design.
#BanesArmory #digitalart #obelisk
Went to #LEGOLand today for the #Goblin #birthday & built this #BiblicallyAccurate #Angel ine one of the little #LEGO #build rooms.
