Leather Gauntlets full build

I made one of these as a gag and, wouldn't you know it....somebody wanted a pair!
Every stage and a couple of my dozen oopsie doodles highlighted.
I'm trying a new 1/8" microfiber lace from LW Pitty. it's slightly more stretchy and durable than suede but I'm not 100% sold yet.
If you get ambitious, and want to make a full set of greaves, thigh, chest, and shoulder...please show it off in the comments.

Come for the killer nightlife, stay for the anemia treatments.
