[edit] Introduction
This tutorial is sort of a work in progress. I intend on producing it as I make the current set of armor I am working on. This suit of armor is a specialized / experimental, non-uniform, but Uruk-hai themed armor, its creation is not intended to be part of the Uruk-hai uniform but to just look 'bad' and maybe the warlord will let me wear it on Saturdays at events. I would appreciate it if this suit was not re-manufactured for someone outside of the Uruk-hai that is in Belegarth. The purpose of this tutorial is to show you how it was designed constructed and finished, since it will entail an entire leather working process. And all the processes should be easily put to use in your leather working.
