    I have a cheap gambeson from Amazon with detachable sleeves, so if anyone has something like that they can probably create a similar effect.
    That outfit is a great match though!

    I really appreciate your critique of what is done in video games as opposed to how things work in the real world. That strap on your baldric that goes under your armpit is a perfect example. Without that the weight of the sword will drag the baldric around your torso but that kind of thing is almost never seen in games, telling me that game costume designers have never er tried any of the things they show.
    Another is the width of the top of Geralt’s vest/sleeveless jacket. That along with the quilted reinforcement is going to restrict freedom of movement and probably chafe and cause blisters. Yeah, healing potions yada yada, but cosplayers don’t get real healing potions.
    I’m looking forward to part two with your mods.

    3:47 I would have thought hunting most things you'd want to consider cleanish clothes… unless they smell strongly of something other than you.
    6:00 tie it at the front then swivel it round? I wonder if those straps are purely decorative, directly functional (eg, a shirt equivalent of trouser ties to keep excess sleeve material in line), or decorative with a mind to possible future functionality (might need a tourniquet at some point, might as well wear it on me at all times, just in case).

      Maybe I can get Burgschneider to sponsor a video, I'll pick dnd call to arms pieces and create a witcher kit. Even if I can't get the physical pieces I could still make a video on the pictures, but it would be neat to see everything fit together. They've also got a new sword in the call to arms line that looks pretty witchery imo. I know Calimacil has the licensed witcher swords too though.

    I really like how they improved the graphics, but nothing's going to beat for me teh original look of the Witcher's clothing from the first game. I just remember playing that game in high school and thinking how cool it is they got the Witcher's look right (that was befre Witcher 3 btw.). i'm glad someone else likes this armour too!

  • @nitrokid

    The Manticore armor style was originally from the first game (Geralt's default). There are a lot of cool, practical armor from Wild Hunt but TW2 Assassin of Kings, has the wildest jacket collection 😂 If you somehow able to make one of those thick combat jackets, please do make a review.

      They are John Deere gardening gloves. They come yellow, you can get them in a hardware store (at least I can in the US) and I simply soaked them in leather dye. They will stain your hands for the first couple wears if you do it this way.

    The one big issue with witcher 3's armor design I have, ignoring its obsession with the mud-and-feces-caked monty python aesthetic with a lot of mooks, has to be the standard armor. Why is the mail in patches? Mail is already flexible.
    Ive heard some really bad things about boots cuffed like that, too.
    Every set of gauntlets in TW3 go over a pair of leather cannons, that's not just with this one. Mostly non-witcher armors do that.
