One of the ladies in our local group has asked if we knew anyone with any Conquistador-like armour for a local theater group putting on a period piece.
They are naturally looking more for a "feel" than for any particularly great authenticity -- a morion-like helmet, 16th Century Cuirass, etc...
Any and all help or guidance would be truly appreciated.
In service,
Max Von Halstern
Conquistador stuff in the greater DC/metro area?

This would've been about the first reign of Andreas and Isabella in the East. Again, no idea of who they were.....

This is a full-contact martial sport where twenty-year-old athletes can routinely get thrashed by fifty-year-olds with a gut and no knees

Some time ago, I sold on AA a morion and a gorget. I have a lot of experience in the manufacture of such things.
I can make any kind of armor for her....
