I'm a Knight... Part 2

Finally, I was able to make some progress on my cardboard armor!



The breastplate is a tight fit, so I ended up lacing the sides and shoulders, so I can actually get it on.










I started covering the pieces in paper mache, putting toothpicks in the holes so I could make sure not to accidentally cover them.


Then, I designed my pauldrons. I had to kind of guess how they would fit on the breastplate, but I don't think it will matter too much.



I also added a hole on the top of each one, to connect them to the shoulders of the breastplate.


Now all that's left is painting the pieces when they're dry, and then I can wear them tomorrow!
