Description

This is a replica of an original 15th century War of the Roses harness. The armor style is German Gothic. This armor is made from wax castings off of original pieces, utilizing original armor smithing techniques. The only differences are that the steel in this armor is stainless as oppose to mild and it is custom fit to the owner.

From top to bottom we have the Spalders (shoulders), Besigeus (flower shaped armpit protection), Cuirrass (breasplate and backplate), Brassards (arms), Tassets (plates on the upper hip, near his hands), Cuisses (thighs), Poleyns (knees), Greaves (calves), and Sabatons (feet).

This is free to use stock photography. I ask only that you link back to this deviation and leave me a comment with the art you've created :)
