I'm a craftsman specializing in 15th-16th century cold arms, mostly from the area of the HRE.
Also, apparently I like directing photoshoots.

A pic from the photoshoot based on Justitia from the circle of Cranach. If I ever revisit this idea, I'll make the scales myself to get closer to the size and shape of it. Also, I'll need to learn making the middle necklace from the painting.

I'll let the scabbard settle for a few days and check back on it to see if I need to tweak anything. I didn't do an open-back scabbard for years now, but it turned out pretty okay.

One more pic of Rebeka in Landsknecht garb, fineart style. The rest of her clothed pics are set to public on P in case anyone's interested.

Now that I have finally finished the scabbard for the cinquedea I felt It deserved a new post along with the announcement that it is now available for travel to a new home

Further progress on the custom Kriegsmesser. Bubinga is... FUN to work with, especially with the bandsaw being inoperable right now. Took me over an hour just to saw the grip slabs to thickness by hand.

The ebony-hilted Bauernwehr is almost finished now. The customer also ordered a ballock dagger, for which I finished the blade. It's interesting how plain it looks on the table while being quite nice in the hand. 8mm spine with a flat grind going very close to zero.

Daily oxymoron: simplified mannerist decor. Also, I really like drawing these messed-up acanthusdolphinparrot... things from the 16th century.

A bit of an update on Patreon. Tldr: all tiers give the same access from now on, the difference between them is just how much you want to support this sideproject of mine. Also, Bea with sword and buckler from last year.

A bit of education. Most ballock hilts are pretty short, so they are uncomfortable if you only handle the shaft. They become much more manageable in a point forward grip if you fondle the balls. This also results in that you can comfortably support it with your thumb in icepick.
