Funny and Fantasy Armour

Director Tex Wall parades an aluminium "breast" plate made for his parody movie "Omelet." The idea behind this was for the armour to look like a standard Roman breastplate from the front but for the breasts to be very obvious when the soldier turned to the side. I think I should have probably formed them out a bit more.

Some fantasy items that I enjoy making and seem fairly popular are my metal masks.

A fantasy corset in progress(left). There is still much work to be done on this piece. One of these days I will finish it. The breastplate on the right is not exactly fantasy but not a replica of an original piece either. I made this as a "Captain of The Guard" armour for a member of the Royal Spanish Court guild at California renaissance fairs. I extrapolated form a number of different period parade armours but also took a good amount of artistic licence.
