I got stuck trying to draw a cartoon of a knight for a short job so looked on the net for pictures to help. In my searches I stumbled across this extraordinary site. Knight's Armoury It is a pity I don't have more time because I could spend ages here. I am not the slightest bit interested in medieval times or war or weapons, but the detailed information here on how to make "ancient" knights' armour is fascinating. If you ever wondered how those suits were made, then take a look, but don't blame me if you spend hours. :)Jenna. You're in the SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism). You'd love this stuff.

Date: 2006-06-06 01:35 pm (UTC)That is a nice bit of work and from looking at it I would guess this suite is more for show. It has nice reticulation in it and what would appear to be a "jousting " hoof on the shoulder chest area. My stuff is not nearly as nice but then I'm just a "yo-man" {archer/sword fighter}
This also looks to-be very custom to whom ever was wearing it.
