Materials Used

Geralt is such an impossibly charming character.

As soon as I threw myself into The Witcher III I knew I wanted to create one of his armor sets for my husband. Luckily we both loved the Wolven armor set, Grandmaster/Mastercrafted tier in particular.

The jacket is made from linen and vinyl, with 2800 12g stainless steel chainmail rings pre-cut and all connected in sections by hand.

The jacket weighs about 12 pounds.

This was a very painstaking process but so worth it.
