m this is 1500. well close too it. not typical 15th cent. how do i know? look at the pants and shirts. there are single handed axes in 15th cent. also some smaller shafted poleaxe's. prob with most paintings is artist styles. also most paintings are done in a later period depicting an earlier one. s...

Wolf

matt, you should be onthe other end of the scale. my forth mail is rusty with oil mixed on it. try looking jandous all day

Wolf

small metal shield is a buckler.

Wolf

H, try therion arms n armour

as to the pommels, they are slightly penned and slightly welded hehehe if you tried real hard you can break the weld by turning the pommel

or just use it in combat 3 times and it'll break loose hehehe

Wolf

um huh? as in gothic u mean german 15th century right?

there are period pictures of archer wearing knees that have high points on the upper and lower lames of the knees.

Wolf

how about that nice lil warriors prayer that Manowar had

on kings of metal!!

dance on a string
dont stop till the blood on your sword is the blood of a king
till the blood on your hand is the blood of a king

Wolf

you mean woolies? the highland shaggy cows? dont know of any sources

Wolf

viva la beard~! i will never shave!!! NEVER!!!!!!

older guys in the 15th cent have beards and so do some clergy. most army dudes do not. mullets or mops w/ clean shaven seams to be the style

Wolf

globose doesnt go with armet.

but for full itailian, i'd say go with a poleaxe
