Check them out, some nice shots; and some really nice armour (i'm in the lamellar)

Wow! I would love to see some helm shows in our neck of the woods, and the armour is pretty good as well.
Where is this?

the gentleman on the left is sir nigel mcfarlen. he just became a citizen her in ealdormere. He and i actually discussed our kits saturday, alll his kit except his helm were made by alan bauldree. i can't remeber who made the bascinet. but he also has a bar grill for i t that looks like a clapviser. the guy on the right is my knight Duke Sir Roak (something needs to be done about his armour (sarnac will agree with me here))

Ok when I got to this pic my first impression was that the guy in black and gold forgot to take his cloak off the hanger before putting it on.

WOW! Nice pics and kits! I am not in the SCA but have attended several fighter practices here in Florida. Alot of leather early type stuff down here. I guess its because of the heat.
I wish more would wear kits like the ones in your pics.

Sir Nigel MacFarlane's kit is modeled on the Hohenklingen effigy.

Josh W · Post by **Josh W** » Wed Jan 21, 2004 3:30 pm

Are any of these guys wearing any natural fibers? I get so tired of seeing otherwise decent kits covered by tabards done in the same lousy "T-Tunic" fabric.

Aha! That is Sir Nigel MacFarlane, lately of the Barony of the Flame, now removed to Ealdormere, where by all appearances he has not wasted any time in building his renown!

I hope to see him soon, in a Pas to be held in Cleftlands at the end of this month!

Joaquin, Sir Nigel's ledner is linen within and without. Stop pointing fingers for once and go win some knightly renown.

mortisfan · Post by **mortisfan** » Wed Jan 21, 2004 5:22 pm

The helm is by Ben Scheiner (SCA: Adriano Venenciani) of Dragon Forge Armory out of Cincinnati. I have the same helm and love it. I should also be getting my full 14th C. kit from him this or next week.

My kit is all cotton (any fabric work) may be doubts about periodness but it is natural.

T Bob did you ever ge the cheque i sent you? (i never heard from you so i assumed you got it) The helm looks even better with the set of lamellar you made that i traded for.

If you want pics i can get some for you or any more pics. i spent 6 straight hours polishing that helmet from 60 grit sand paper to 1500 then half micron. it is like a bathroom mirror. the only shinier helm there was the chrome plated one.

The cheque arrived just fine--my bank took its sweet time honoring it (which was the bank's fault) After doing the "angry customer" voice, I got paid.

Did you get the "D" rings and chin-strap?

Yeah...I thought that was the best one in the Helmshau! I'm glad you're happy with it.

I'd love some pictures with you wearing the whole ensemble.

Tarquin Bjornsson · Post by **Tarquin Bjornsson** » Wed Jan 21, 2004 10:52 pm

No i never go the chin strap & d rings (don't worry got it all dealt with by taking apart an old back pack)

Yeah i traded raibert my old helm straight up for the kilbanion. i have some problems with the plates continually bending. i was thinking when i get to the high maintenance plates as i relace it (it is just too blue [img]http://forums.armourarchive.org/ubb/smile.gif[/img]) i would just run them through the bead roller and put a flute in them. that should keep them straight.

i will get some pictures of both ensembles complete ASAP.

It was a fun day, but then a lot of the days in Ealdormere are fun. [img]http://forums.armourarchive.org/ubb/smile.gif[/img]

We've been very lucky here in Ealdormere to have a lot of folks working towards better kits.

You're all invited to come visit. If you like it you're welcome to stay!

As well as Sir Nigel another recent imigrant to Ealdormere is Lord Robert de Bray, the gentleman is the black surcoat with the gold dragon, who came to us from Ansteorra.

Aaron · Post by **Aaron** » Thu Jan 22, 2004 7:25 am

These pictures ROCK!

The authenticity standard is fantastic!

I loved the Phrygian helm and Sallet (as well as the rest of the suits).

Sir Nigel's (?) klapvisor helm is quite nice.

I especially liked the Evanders' armour (cap-a-pie with buckler and sallet!)!

Thank you!

Hey Konrad who do i contact to see about joing the company (am debating the merits of a late period kit strictly for pas's)

Thanks

Aaron · Post by **Aaron** » Thu Jan 22, 2004 8:44 am

Who made those neat bucklers?

Could you fit a guantlet in them?

Does he or she sell them?

For how much?

Do they have a website?

sarnac · Post by **sarnac** » Thu Jan 22, 2004 9:19 am

Aaron - Which ones?

I know alot of people use the Mandrake bucklers.

They are VERY solid.

back on topic....

I truly beleive that this is a good example of the appearance of our kingdom.
There are some who fall below this level but they are constantly encouraged to improve, and those that do this well are constantly striving to improve even further.

Tarquin - I am also putting together a 14th century kit for Pas'....
