Cant wait to see the final product by Member Dejoker - check out his rinks below for more.

Original text from Dejoker below.

As the title states, this is a dannychoo logo maille inlay. Made in european 4 in 1 from orange aluminum and sterling silver rings 18gauge 3/16" ID.

Some more pics of inlays I've been working on:

Full shirt

http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee48/sillyneo/MailleClose.jpg
http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee48/sillyneo/MailleBack.jpg
Although I didn't expect the bottom of the shirt to bunch so much around the hips and thus kinda messes with how the inlay falls, will have to make the shirt slightly larger I suppose.

Archer's command seal

edit: may have to zoom out a bit, as this close up 4 ring per inch (effective) gives lousy resolution

Cool! How long did these take you?!

Such a cutie, your dollfie is. I'm really digging the chain mail.

Once had a comrade who was really into making human size chain mail armor, but he moved away long since. Never stopped talking about it, all the different patterns and such...

Would love to see DC.com-themed Medieval Knight Armor. :D

That's some awesome work!! I did my high school senior project on making chain mail. I'll have to find the pictures sometime but I inlaid my school mascot (Viking) into a European 6 in 1 banner.

Nice work I've never seen anybody do patterns in chainmail before. All the people I knew who did mail were after historical correctness.
