High Elf hip armor pattern

Description

A digital pattern (PDF) that you can print out and use to make your own (cosplay or LARP) shoulder armor pieces.

You can make the hip armor just like this, or add your own design elements to it to make your armor completely unique. This hip armor design has a base shape and two smaller ‘layers’ to add more to the silhouette. Because of these layers, you can choose to add the smaller pieces or leave them out and use just the large base shape.
What’s also possible is to wear this hip armor upside down, for a different, but also beautiful silhouette! I showed this in the photos on the mannequin.

This pattern is great to use for various cosplay projects or LARP costumes.

This is a digital file, so there is no physical pattern that I send to you. You will need to download the file to your computer and work with it from there.

If you purchase this PDF, you can immediatly download it and print it to help make your own hip armor pieces with EVA foam . I suggest using 5mm thick high density EVA foam to make this armor piece but 1cm thick foam can work too; it will just be bulkier.
Another option is to use a combination of 2mm thick foam and Worbla thermoplastic to create really sturdy armor pieces.
