I posted a request for armor a few weeks ago, I got 2 responces, one of them was from an actual armorer, I lost the reply due to an e-mail accident, so if you could please responde again.

P.S. If anyone has anything new since mylast post, please feel free to reply or e-mail me. Cheap is best, and it still doesn't have to be pretty, just functional.

My armor could be described as "inexpensive but functional". Take a look at my site, I've gotten some very positive feedback.

Hey Dalewyn,

I checked your site out and your stuff looks good. I am considering ordering some of your stuff, the question I have though, is can/will you make the armor in different styles? My Persona is a Lanskenkt, and as such armor of italian design isn't what 'd prefer. And I figure if I'm going to order something, i should try to get what I want and what I need. Please get back to me.

P.S. I have ordered a Helm off of e-bay, and have a breast plate, so I am looking for arms, legs, gorget and gauntlets. I am also looking to get the gear for lights, so if anyone knows where I can get a 3 weapons mask in southern california, please let me know.

Actualy Sarnac, I didn't get the "Pigs in Space" Helm, I got the Limited Edition, Mel Brooks "Jews In Space" Helm, with the added bonus of a free schwartz, and free shipping. : )

I live in the LA County Area, in the City of Claremont Its near Pomona and Ontario.

Draconis, do you think you could provide a link or two showing Landschenekt(sp?) armour? I could probably help you out if I saw a few pictures...

Thanks.

I'm trying to find some pictures showing armor for the Landsknecht. I can't seem to find any so far. The Landsknecht are German, if my information is correct around the 16th century starting at around 1520. If this helps anyone with more knowledge of armor than me (ok, with any knowledge of armoring) I'd appriciate any help you can give me.

go to
http://public.srce.hr/husar/
click on Renaissance
then click "Imperial NCO, Battle of Sisak 1593" it's a little late but pretty close to what you are looking for

also click German Landsknecht 1530
he is however unfortunately unarmoured

also check out

Welch ein Glueck das es vorbei ist
wir dachten nichts wird anders
jeder Augenblick der Zukunft
ist ein Gedanke an vorher
weil wir alle Kraft vergaben
wir gaben alles Beste
und jedermann jetzt nichts mehr hat
und der Tod nun aller harrt
Leben heisst Leben!
