RP: Resizing Armor.

Dux, having found a set of full plate armor, is looking around Kelna for a acomplished blacksmith to have its straps and plates resized and refitted. Maybe even adding some imagery of Sol and such.
On the eastern side of the town you find a low building with a wide black chimney puffing hefty amounts of dark smoke. A young dwarf tends the forge as another much broader hammers horseshoes into shape on the horn of an anvil. He pretends to not notice your arrival until the shoe is finished. The smith tosses his hammer to the side and gives you booming greeting. "Ah. A customer! Be it sword sharpening or new nails for your abode you can get it done in me' smithy!"
"Actually sir," Dux reaches into his saddlebags and takes out a piece of the plate "I need this refitted and made to style." He hands the plate over to the smith and shows him that the rest is in the bag. "Is this within your skill? and if so, what would it cost to have it done? and do you have any input on how to make it more 'Solon-esque'?"  Dux smiles in what he hopes is a friendly smile.

"Ah, that ain't nothing old Roderic can't get into shape." He lays the armor onto a table and seems to make mental notes of its design. "This shape's a blasted one to work with. So many bends made to fit a fighter slimmer than yaself. Can it get it done in a tenday though. Faster if ye pay me extra. The cost'd be, hmmm... 300 gold!
The thud of the coin-bag hitting the counter is loud. "There is 150 gold coins in here, up front. The rest upon delivery, if this is okay with you, sir?" Dux stares at the old man. " and do you need measurements now, or later?"
"Bah! Not too trusting of my skills are we? Ye'll be most content with the result I promise. But now, do take off that armor so I can get the size right..." The measuring is done in a few seconds as the dwarf appears to be able to do it by eye. He'll send you off swiftly after, agreeing to your payment model.
"It has nothing to do with trusting of skill."  He lets him do it all and then waits the allotted time to the end of the ten-day to go back.
