Greetings all. I wish to make a rapier belt/carrier for my Renaissance period garb. I ordered the hardware from Darkwood Armory. Where does one find a pattern for the leather works?

Thank you in advance for any replies/direction.

Unfortunately, you might have to eyeball it off of images. I'll see if I can rustle up some good ones for you.

Here's some images of modern reconstructions by various makers from a friend of mine-

I'll look around for artwork too. Figuring out relative proportions using points of reference like the size of your hand and those of figures in artwork will be your friend.

Thanks Dan! Great stuff!
