Vision: Nicely done, and a very feminine version of a "militia gauntlet." The pattern of colors was well chosen, as was the layout of bead/chain work across the hand. However, no one that needed to do anything strenuous with their hands would ever wear this. I'm sure it's what your customer wanted, but it's not really appropriate to call it a militia gauntlet.

Originality: Love the combination of textures that you used. The design isn't the most original, but it turned out well - as a complete and interesting piece of work.

Technique: What I can see looks well done, especially if you made each of the scales by hand as well. Not particularly difficult from a technical standpoint, just tedious. Nice combination of materials.

Impact: Striking, interesting, but rather impractical. Typical combination of fantasy and reality in an unrealistic fashion.
