Last Halloween I decided I was going to become The Witch King of Angmar from The Lord of the Rings. This was quite a daunting task lol. When I finished my gauntlets I thought how nice it would be to have it all laid out nicely for others to make. Because anyone can make these! All the materials are simple and easy to work with, the only thing that this project requires that is valuable is your time!

Since you cut the pieces with that pre-made crease in the middle, all that fold requires is a little work with your hands, just making it bend the way you want. They should all look like this when you are done.

Once everything is dry, do a little shaping to your D3s and D4s. Using the ruler give your D4s a nice clean bend, making them into sharp claws. On the D3s just give them a soft bend so they wrap onto your finger.

This part is even more dangerous. Once again, to get it to work, I had to hot glue the hand piece while the glove was on my hand. I loaded up the hand piece with glue as quickly as possible, since the glue cools fast, and then stuck it onto my hand where it looked right. Be careful, as the brass fasteners will have absorbed the heat from the glue and will be very hot. Carefully hold the hand piece down on your hand until it is dry. It will get hot, but for me it was bearable.

a good referance for a fett gauntlet is in the 12 " figures ill post a pic of my almost finished right fett gauntlet made out of card board and fett armor...TOMORROW SO U SHOULD REALLY CHECK IT OUT PERFECT FOR A REFERANCE ON A GAUNTLETS SHAPE...

Learn how to make the gauntlets in the Fantasy Armor series using this pattern and video tutorial! The pattern includes two styles as do all the Fantasy Armor patterns. The pattern can be scaled when printing to accommodate various sizes. See the tutorial for more details.

like the topic says Im trying to make/design/get tips on designing a gauntlet for use in my HEMA group, atm we use lacross gloves but they are too bulky for realistic sparring some times. I have been to armor archives and found a few gauntlets but most of them seem to be either steel or made to be costume gear and Im looking for something that can take a hit from a steel longsword I have plenty of sued and leather to use. I have tried making a few designs in the past but so far I havent come up with a good model that isnt super difficult/expensive to make. please all help is appreciated and if you happen to have any patterns I could use it would be a godsend. Thanks in advance.

Hands are just difficult to armour; "something that will take a hit from a longsword" and "not expensive/difficult to make" are pretty much mutually exclusive as far as I've seen. Lacrosse gloves are about as good as it gets. What you want are steel finger gauntlets with some decent low-profile modern padding inside the gloves, but finger gauntlets are expensive for good reason - ones that fit well take a lot of practice to make.

Leather isn't really the right material for this job, it's strength/thickness ratio means it's very hard to get something that will provide reasonable protection without being even bulkier than lacrosse gloves.

Google "mitten gauntlet". Steel patterns often work for leather with little alteration. The Armor archive has a few gauntlet patterns. If the pattern has an area that needs to be "dished", that is where you need to stretch the leather. For the hands, you would have better results with using small articulated sections. If padding is needed, you can use a yoga mat cut to fit and smoothed with a dremel.

I've got enough experience with WMA and leather to say I've never seen any leather, even hard rolled sole bend, that I would use for hand armour for bouting with steel swords that wouldn't end up as bulky as a lacrosse glove or worse. I'd use it for shinai, sure; rattan, maybe; steel no way, no how. The only things I've seen that will give you adequate protection and enough hand mobility to not stuff up the subtleties of technique are steel or equivalent metal, or kydex and the kydex is a bit dodgy IMO.

My family loves The Lord of the Rings trilogy of movies, so we all decided to dress up as characters from the movie for Halloween. Be sure to look at the post about all of our Lord of the Rings costumes, including more details about the Nazgul costume and his sword made from wood.

I used painters tape to attach the pieces of the glove on to a cardboard box in the order where they go. The tape prevented them from flying all over the place when I spray painted them. Putting them in order makes to paint job look good when they are attached to the glove.

I had some old brown work gloves that I used as the base for the gauntlets. To darken and weather the brown, I used black shoe polish. I just put the gloves on and dipped them into the shoe polish a little at a time until I got the effect I wanted.

I have seen several tutorials that used a glue gun to attach foam, but I was worried that it might not stick well. So I decided to sew on each piece. This allowed the foam to have a little movement as I moved my fingers. I had an old metal pipe that I inserted into each finger that helped prevent me from sewing through the wrong part of the glove.

Stitch the finger pieces on base gloves first. I stitched each piece twice along the back edge. Start at the tip of the finger with piece #A and move backward, sewing on the different parts until you get to piece #D. Piece #D should reach the ridge of your knuckles.

Excelente toda ka explicacin sobre el disfraz y sus accesorios precisamente acabo de terminar la tnica de Nazgul y ahora comienzo con la espada y posteriormente los guantes muchas gracias por tan excelente pagina!!!

Just a couple of things: I used metallic fabric paint that I spread with my fingers and it instantly gave the gauntlets an old metal look (wish I could upload the photos). The whole painting process took leas than 10 mins. Then, I used a regular old glue gun to stick the pieces to the gloves and that too took about 10 mins.

Hello!
Thank you for sharing this. I made my own Nazgul costume but I used your pattern and tutorial for gauntlets. They had a lot of succes and nobody thought that they were made in paper ^^
Thank you so much!

Time Cave. A heavily-branching sequence. All choices are of roughly equal significance; there is little or no re-merging, and therefore no need for state-tracking. There are many, many endings.

Effects: The time cave is the oldest and most obvious CYOA structure. It is often good for narratives about freedom and open possibility, adventures that could go anywhere, flights of fancy. Time caves tend to have relatively short playthroughs, but strongly encourage replay: they are broad rather than long. Even with multiple playthroughs, most players will probably miss a good deal of the content.

There are two major varieties of gauntlet: deadly and friendly. Deadly gauntlets mostly prune the tree with failure; friendly ones mostly do so with short-range rejoining, and look a bit more like simple branch-and-bottleneck structures. Friendly gauntlets have been vastly more common in recent years, making up a high proportion of Twine works.

Effects: The Sorting Hat is a compromise between the breadth of more open formats and the depth of linear ones. Sometimes the nature of the various branches is signaled to the player; this is kind of important, in fact, because the player is pretty likely to notice the linearity of the second half and might assume that all of their choices will ultimately get funneled into that particular thread. The player gets a lot of influence over how the story goes; however, the author may end up effectively having to write several different games.

Loop and Grow. The game has a central thread of some kind, which loops around, over and over, to the same point: but thanks to state-tracking, each time around new options may be unlocked and others closed off. This is a very general pattern, and can co-exist with many others. Trapped in Time, for instance, is basically a cycle-and-growing Gauntlet; Bee tames its floating-module nature with a year-long loop structure.

Effects: Loop and Grow emphasizes the regularity of the world while retaining narrative momentum. A justification is needed for why whole sections of narrative can repeat: the player-character is often following routine activities in a familiar space, engaged in time-travel, or performing tasks at a certain level of abstraction. This regularity often comes at the price of openness: many stories with a strong Loop and Grow structure involve a struggle against confinement or stagnation.
