In this video, I finish the raven skull cloak pins I started in the previous video. After forging two simple pins with a ring on the top, I drill a hole in the top of the skulls to receive this pin. Metal epoxy putty is then inserted into the end of the beaks to create a receiver for the point of the pin. The brass skulls are then treated with a nitric acid-based solution called Brass Black. After blackening, the patina is highlighted using steel wool, leaving dark in the crevices.
Now, the grand reveal on my "in progress" rental costume of leather armour and coyote skin cloak. It should be noted that this is not a historically accurate form of armour but rather a fantasy style typical of current film and videogame depictions of leather armour.

Thak is the coolest nerd I've never met lol
🤘🤘🤘
Kick ass videos brother man.
Nice work!
Those are amazing!
Thakius Maximus, great job!
Though unintentional those tear outs actually work rather well in this application. They lend to the overall effect of the skulls themselves.
Lol tiny led behind the skull and those eyes would have like an archevil glow.!
🙏. Blessed days now
Crawford out ⚒️🧙♂️
some impressive crow heads, your pieces are excellent, great job
Oh that’s so cool
This makes me want to hop on Skyrim and forge some bad ass stuff. New sub here
Hi Thak the skulls look awesome and the cracks in the eyes and nose look good . mate those two dogs playing with the rope and sun are Spectacular ,sorry I rave on but your craftsmanship is over and above all others. cheers.
Thak in January: "You'll note I'm wearing a mask"
Me, later that year: "Hey me too, twinsies!"
awesome, hey if you get a chance I would love to see a video on the construction of the elbow pieces on your "slayer" armor. love the channel btw.
The raven skulls came out very well. I agree that you need to add pieces to keep the fur from hiding the skulls so much.
Do you have a video showing the gate @ 03:43-05:05? My wife & I _really_ like the plate with the dogs pulling the ropes with the sun(?) looking distressed! ;)
I made that gate for my girlfriend . She has two dogs, sunny and indy....hence the sun...and the ropes trail off into whips...a nod to Indiana Jones. No video on the making of but might do a photo slideshow of the making on instagram
very neat, love the skulls. though how did you weave the leather like that in your chest peace?
I can see what you mean about the tear outs with the dog and totally agree, but the same thing on the skulls looks amazing! As an aesthetic I think that should stay in any skulls you do in future. It looks very authentic and gives an idea of age and entropy.
Brass also has zinc in it which is very bad for you.
Zinc is not bad for you where on earth did you read that
