Vambraces

thingiverse

I originally crafted vambraces as a key component of my Nazgul costume, but ultimately didn't incorporate them into the final design. They just didn't quite mesh with the rest of the ensemble. The fixtures for attaching straps or some other secure locking mechanism are woefully inadequate and could definitely use an upgrade. The current strap cutouts are clunky and unattractive. It's worth noting that these vambraces were designed specifically for my slender arms, so they're rather narrow. However, scaling them up in the slicer should be a straightforward process. I used leftover leather on the interior of the vambraces, securing it with cord to the sides, while painting the exterior with metallic paint for a more dramatic effect.
