My Little Pony FiM: Mane 6 chainmail shirts

[Wemes 9]

Hi everyone. So as a hobby I make chainmail. I spent a bit more than 2 years coming up with and making a set of 6 shirts for the mane 6. I had a ton of fun making them. It's made using 16 gauge 1/4 in aluminium rings with anodized aluminium for the inlays. It of course will do very little to stop an actual sword from stabbing you but it's rather light and shiny.

Colour me impressed. Where did you learn such a skill?

Those looks pretty sweet.

Are you planning a Celestia one by any chance?

I took it up mostly as something to do while watching TV. I have several friends that knit and I decided to make stuff with metal. I looked up how to do it on the internet and I either read up on how to do it or figured it out on my own. The inlays used a few computer programs to figure out the patterns and the rest of it was me just sitting there working on it over the course of 2 years. :-)

Not at the moment :-P But if there's demand I would consider it.

WTH, THOSE ARE INCREDIBLE!! I didn't even know you could just make them on your own o-o If you're still making these in three years I'll probably buy one, haha ^^

Those are really impressive.  I've tried making a chainmail shirt a long long time ago.  I quickly abandoned it because it seemed SO tedious.  You must have a heck of a lot of patience.  Well done.

They look nice. It must be hard to make them.
