Elvish armor

Used in the LOTR movies, and every bit as impressive up close as it is on screen. Typical of Weta detail. They strive to make works of art and they do.

I learned from the manager of the store--which is Weta Cave--that Peter Jackson and Richard Taylor were friends when they were kids. And their bedrooms looked a lot alike--full of chemicals, film, whatever because they were always making things. In the short video they show at Weta Cave, Peter Jackson refers to Weta as the "Place of happy souls", and so it appears to be. Everyone seems to absolutely love doing what they do.
