Those are spiffy! Do you have the reference for the originals upon which they are based, or at least a date to which they are attributable?

I'll see if I can dig it up in the next day or two, I got the idea to make these when an anthro friend of mine who spent several years wandering eastern Europe and two years on a dig on a tower in Poland one year as the project manager told me about some grotesque spaulder armor some wealthier Poles wore. I do know off the top of my head it would have been around the 1500's. I'll email him and see if I can get a book referance, or something more then just me saying cuz i said it is. ;)
