Thank you for showing your armor in gloss. That helps quite a bit for me!!

Im doing a Shadow Guard for my next kit. I was wondering which most go with, Matte or Gloss for the armor.

I just want to see what others have done.

And yes, the helmet is of rubies. Not a problem on the names. Both of those are on eBay that I have found and am looking at what others have found on here as well. Here are the pics of the helmet: http://i982.photobucket.com/albums/ae309/capthank30/593b7abc-4c72-461d-a44e-148d499315dc_zpsa1b72a86.jp...

I was going to add a couple of pics of my helmet, but for some reason I cannot get them to upload. Suggestions? I have seen others say that the visor isn't dark enough. So, thoughts on that. It looks easy to add to or replace it since there are screws holding it on. Also, for the rest of the costume...

That is exactly who I purchased mine from. There were a couple of spots on the helmet where it looked like the paint hadn't dried before it was packaged. I emailed them and after a couple of weeks I received a package of paint to fix the helmet. I am sorry to hear that you have had such a hard time ...

That looks absolutely awesome!!! After having my Royal Guard costume for a while, I think I will consider a Shadow Guard!
