Great post! This resin stuff and faux armor seems to be big business in Hollywood. I would have made them wear the real thing! Charleton Heston is rolling in his El Cid grave over this!!

[Just Jesse]

Oh, im in a crisis. I have no idea what i want to wear to fairs anymore. i cant make up my mind. I have a split personalty between medieval and pirate/colonial/elizebethan garb. haha. I f i do Templar, i want all my freinds to be crusaders, and i want my tunic altered to be more slimming, a doublewrap belt and no less then 10 crusaders with me. Pirate is more comfy, all the girls i know like it more, and i love the sea just as much as the Templars. No i cant do both ahha

No doubt, great link Lord Magnus.  The female Paladin breastplate is something to put on my wish list....



TJ, really now.....the girls might like the Pirates but when they get to be women, well, it's a different story.  IMHO.

Seriously?

A good armorer such as Brian Price or any others of the ilk should be able to custom make one for you.  Of course the cost is going to be high so just be prepared.

I'd rather a Knight.  The persona of a Pirate might be fun at the bar, but he's not what I want leading my family.

[Lord Magnus]

Hmm I guess I cant comment on this one. Being a mercenary.. I suppose I am sort of a "medieval pirate" of a sorts.

I found pictures of me in my Templar stuff from 2005, when my Templar surcoat still looked new.

I get to wear it again, because now Texas has a faire with a right time period.

Huzzah Sister! Deus vult!!

Confere Jesse, you could always surrender your Habit, and move to a different Order.........see:

Hospitallers, now known as the Knights of Rhodes or Malta were forced to become a more militarized force, fighting especially with African pirates (the Barbary coast pirates).

[Sir Samuel]

I am more inclined to the Knights of Malta but more in tune to the Knights Hospitillars( of Sts. John Of Jeruselem) Though of course they are The knights of Malta and Rhodes. And Yes they did become very well off as fighters of the Muslim Pirates. And let be honest why not a Knight ? Pirates are Played out...

Greetings Brother and Sisters,

Just checking in to see that those of you on the East Coast are warm & well. If you need to go out on the roads, please be safe.

I'm in Ohio and only a few inches today but I saw you were all getting dumped on.

I also want to wish you all a very Happy Holidays from both Princess Emma and myself.

Fortitido et spes!

Sir Michael

[Monsignor de Beaumanoir]

Sir Michael, all the best this Christmas to you and Princess Emma. And all the best to all the other Brothers and Sisters of this humble thread.

Pax vobiscum.
