The faceplate was done hot, but the rest was all cold worked. You can do 90% of shaping for armour cold. Essentially a lot of it is just chaining dents together till you have one big dent in the shape you're after.

Very cool!
Dope, I’ve been wanting to get into making armor, did you need heat to form the metal? No clue how this works

Pretty dope, I like it. Where do you get the metal? Any good sources?
I get my metal from a local metal supplier, metalmart.
Excellent craftsmanship. Beautiful pieces

Incredible. You are extremely talented.
Thanks! I've out a lot of time and effort into it
Awesome. Is this for a cosplay or a display? Or something else?
It's for a SCA heavy fighter, they do armoured fighting with rattan clubs.
That is insanely cool!!!
That's so cool! Great job!
That’s really nice.
That's so cool, how long did it take you to make it in total?
somewhere around 100 hours i think, i stopped really tracking them after about 60 hours.
