Adapting A Larp Costume To Changing Seasons
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 жов 2024
- Larps take place all-year round which means that which works in winter might be too warm in summer, or that what works in summer might be freezing when wearing it in the winter. So in this video I take you through my thought process on adapting larp costumes for different seasons. How do you keep comfortable in all seasons yet stay recognizable as the same character?

B grade leather is an A+ for this. Bravo! Well done!
Yes, so true! Sometimes 'lesser' quality materials are exactly what you need!
If you want the cape, you could add a light vest to it, adding pocket space there. Perhaps something, in design, similar to a fishing vest but a bit longer Going with something more slightly past fingertip length adds an option for hand pockets if you have to deal with inconsistent weather or wind
Again a lively and friendly presentation that kept me watching until the end :) good work on that one! thrilled for your other videos.
Watching this was a blast. I love Larp so much aah. The armor is SO nice, my god.
Thank you! Happy to see you like larp videos this much
Surprise extra uploads, always a good thing.
It's fun watching this costume evolve, especially when the discussions surrounding it lead to lore expansions and logical conclusions about how our characters work. It is, of course even more fun to get the in-the-moment updates on what doesn't work. Especially when it happens at inopportune moments. ;-)
Heh, with how wet it was that cape turned out way too soggy 😅 And yes, in the same way that costumes never change, playing a larp adds to the stories, both background and active stories, which somehow do find their way back into the costume itself again as well.
This is all great info and great job on the leather cuirass! I larp in Alberta so I deal with this a lot as well as it can be like 30 Celsius in July-August but then like 0 in September-October so big change in a little time.
It looks good, and seems to fit the character quit well. The black undershirt looks natural to me and goes well with the costume. Sorry the weather was so bad for your event. Hope you had a good time any way.
Thank you! Yes, it was a lot of fun! Already have plenty of shenanigans planned for the next one. It is an indoor sleeping larp with plenty of indoor space to sit in as well, so bad weather doesn't ruin a weekend. And yes, plain coloured underclothing isn't too obtrusive but still keeps you nice and warm.
Hi Maris. The armor realy is a nice piece of work, I like it. How did you do the braided ornaments? I can't figure it out. Is it carved into the leather, or burned? Or is it real braidwork? Thumbs up and greetings from Germany 😘
Thanks! The braidwork is a rollerwheel, the next video I will release, will be about how I built this armour, where I will show how I did the carvings and the dyeing of them.
@@MarisArmoury thank you. I am looking forward to the next video 😘
@@MarisArmoury Great, im looking forward to the next video then!
hey even een vraagje hoe kom jij aan je paspop ik wil er graag een voor mijn costume
Ik heb er twee, de ene waar het harnas van mijn vriend op staat is een goedkope niet-instelbare xenos pop waar ik een ductape dummy van mijn vriend overheen gegooid heb. Dit werkt wel alleen omdat mijn vriend groter is dan de paspop.
De andere is een verstelbare paspop die ik gehaald heb bij textielstad. Maar ieder grotere stoffenzaak, of online-stoffenzaak heeft ze wel.
Well all I see is keep it simple if he easy and yes keep it very functional for yourself
