I’d love to say something catchy.but..
THIS SHOT IS FIREEEEAAAA.
Totally lost it when because Yanapi took the exact shot that I had mind.
It was so damn cold outside, fingers and toes were hella numb, but surprisingly, the armor kept my body really warm hahaha.
Until I…fell onto the snow and took a nap.

Half swording is still one of my absolute favorite technique. Although I’m not good at it, it is very rewarding when I get to pull it off…after getting stabbed 10 times…HAHAHA

Stealth is my specialty.
But seriously, I’m more of a bait with my flashy outfit.
Put some of my kit together so Yanapi can get some sweet sweet shot. And oh God, this was so much fun.

WHAT A FASHION MONSTER
LOVE IT.
Installed the straps and buckles, just testing out the new plume set up.
I might buy another set of these to make it super full, but for now, it works as a display or larp helmet.
I can’t believe how big of a weight difference a 18guage and a 16guage helmet can be!
Can’t wait for the rest of my softkit outdit to come together.

Why You Should Always Wear Your Helmet.
PSA: never put stickers on your helmets (unless you have checked with the manufacturer) because the adhesive can weaken the structure!
One day my health teacher in middle school just like … didn’t show up for class. And so of course we were all “oh if he doesn’t show up in fifteen minutes we’re legally allowed to leave”, giggling about it and all the bullshit. He did eventually show up, ten minutes into the class time. He looked haggard as fuck, sweating all over, hair messed up, beaten to hell and back. We stared at him and were about to ask what in the world happened to him when he stopped in front of his desk and smacked his bicycle helmet down on it.
His helmet had this odd discolored patch on it. Like, white against white, but … weird? It’s then that I realized his helmet didn’t have a discolored patch, it had a patch missing. A big chunk of his helmet had just been shaved away, the curve of the helmet gone and sanded flat by whatever it had been scraped against. And running through that patch, from one side of the helmet to the other, was this big crack, like the whole helmet had split like an eggshell.
Our teacher took a couple deep panting breaths and then told our class: “And this,” he took another deep breath, “is why you always wear your helmet”.
And that’s the story of how an entire class of middle school students took helmet-wearing very seriously for the rest of their lives.
Wear ya damn helmet
I don’t usually add to posts but I felt the need to clarify that the reason why stickers aren’t allowed specifically on hard hats is because they could be concealing cracks and other structural failings, not because the adhesive weakens them.
So yeah wear your helmets! And if you ride a motorcycle please get a good one!

I’m pretty stoked for the new phase for obvious reasons. Have a doodle of the recently revealed Noodle.
