Bracers, simple or not?

Client ordered some bracers. Well, that's easy!
With a helm of awe on one and scandi compass on the other. No problem, I've got the laser!
In gold! oh. that's...um...possible.
And a business logo incorporated with my name on the side. We're kinda running low on bracer space but I'll try. And can we add a removable strop to the inside? You know what? We sure can! Let's get to work!
I love the challenges to push my skills and stretch my brain muscle. It goes to show how one design can go in a lot of different directions with a tweak or two to get someone a thing they love instead of an off the rack thing that's ok enough.
So...the basic bracer design and dimensions are there if you want to keep it simple. Or you could spruce it up with some tooling or lasering. Maybe add a few layers with some sweeping arches. And close it with straps and buckles instead of lacing. Go nuts! Make it your own. Our limit is our imagination.
