The costume is literally chainmail and a sword, and you're response was "it looks weird" to both. Jesus Christ.


I believe his chainmail might be aluminum. I'm assuming this is his first character and LARP is expensive to get into.


- As for actual commentary: You're off to a good start. You've got a foundation for a good outfit and you'll build over time.

To make things look more interesting consider the following for future additions to your outfit:

1. A good leather belt with a pouch or two on it. (Often useful for holding Larp items. But also looks good)
   
   
2. Gloves - Not for everyone, but they add a nice look and protect your fingers)
   
   
3. Layers - Layers make everything look a little better, and some fabric like a tunic or shoulder cape over your chainmail is a great accessory but also looks good flowing in the wind when you're fighting.

4. To the socially awko taco's point above. Your sword currently looks a little bland in comparison to the rest of you. Consider adding some paint for effect and then resealing it so the paint doesn't chip and break. Look into how to do this properly before attempting it. Still looks better than a stupid boffer, so props to you for starting there.
   
   
5. I can't see your feet but a good pair of boots always make a difference. If you can't find or afford boots right now consider some gaiters over a pair of waterproof boots like the following: (I use rubber boots that look leather because rain is not unusual where I larp. wouldn't recommend them for warmer climates.)

6. Colour - You're fairly black and metal which is fine, but an accent colour can really make you stand out!
