Most examples that I seem to find of seaxes in Sweden are from the vendel and valsgärde grave sites, neither of which are from the viking age (roughly 800-1100)
Please find some workaround, because right now I just keep choking dead bodies while trying to grab their helmets
I like this guy's outfit, but I'm not too good with historical clothing; I know that his headwear is a chaperon, but that's about it.
It's from the late 15th century if that's any help
There's quite literally no point to it anymore; it gives you no indication of how far you've come and makes the last couple exercises feel like a slog.
Just make it function properly, like it did before.
As the title says, did scale sleeves ever exist?
This image from Dura-Europos seems to me to be showing scale sleeves, though it might be maille.
The older an illustration depicting armour is, the more skeptical I become of its authenticity. And this was drawn by Tommy Hellman in 2002, so quite a bit ago.
I'm aware of the reputation regarding Osprey's accuracy in their art, but Turner seems to be different. I'd be hard-pressed to find many, if any, flaws in Turner's art. Also, his style is fuckin' great.
Always wondered this ever since I first saw tatooine. Would it just be a very bright star?
To me, the armour, weaponry, lack of gambeson and basically everything else seems pretty spot on. But I'm by no means an expert so maybe someone here can find some flaws
I've only seen such armour in art, so I'm a confused on what it's supposed to be. Is it gilded, or just an artistic liberty, or something else?
