I'm a Knight... Part 4

It's been awhile since I finished up my cardboard breastplate and pauldrons. But I had always intended to make a few more pieces of armor, and then my friends at school decided to have a battle in cardboard armor! So... I'm making more pieces now, and weapons! Typical me, I procrastinated... a lot. So I only really started 2 days ago, but didn't have much to show until yesterday. And the battle is tomorrow, so these aren't going to be the most fancy things. Plus I'm not sure if I'm allowed to use paper mache... Anyways, I made some bracers and leg guards of a sort, to add to my existing armor. (I would have worn them all at once, but the breastplate is annoying to get in and out of, so I didn't want to do it late last night...)













Then, I also made a knife, complete with a scabbard to put it into:



And, my sword! It still doesn't have a cross guard yet, but other than that it's mostly finished. I also made a ball out of cardboard that I'm going to put in the end of the hilt once the sword is all painted. The only problem is that it might be a little too big and heavy for me to swing around... we'll see, I guess.




















Well, hopefully I'll be able to finish these by tomorrow and get them all painted! And make another, smaller sword just in case...
