@Knightly_H Yup, got myself this (not so) little magnet last year at the Musée de l'Armée 👀 Best unnecessary purchase I made at a museum shop so far!

@Bargas_treanty @Sarusquilla_ Still can't believe a (relatively) low budget british comedy is the best armor has looked on screen in years. They didn't involve Capwell for nothing I suppose 😄

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@ArystanAmanzol1 Haha yes, I probably spent enough time in Fromsoft games for it to look perfectly normal 😄🫣

@ArystanAmanzol1 There's a nice recap on the topic if you're interested! 🙂🛡️⬇️

@ArystanAmanzol1 Granted the size of the shield here is a bit ridiculous for 100% practical use, it's little compromise with the fantasy element and the fact these are prestige units meant to display power as much as do some actual fighting.

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@Knightly_H Hehe thanks! Definitely did NOT go overboard with the shield size just for that painting 🫣🫣

@gardedenuit Très important la petite moustache! 👨 😄

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@RuiseartMcSpain Haha yes, these are as much a prestige guard (one could call them walking royal billboards) as a 100% practical fighting unit. Shield could indeed have been a bit smaller but I tried to keep the 32mm minis in mind😄

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@Bargas_treanty Yes! I was trying to sneak in a thematic fire pattern without going over-the-top with the sword shape.😄Glad you noticed!

@BoredGuitarfish I wish I did but unfortunately these were done about a year ago ^^ I'm posting them now that the game has been announced! I'm actually pretty slow by 2024 standards 😅

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@NakaiCanon Haha thanks! Seems like people aren't fond of poor Aegon 😄 I wonder why 😏😏

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@GabrielUbal2 Looks awesome! Love your use of cloth here, reminds me of an unused sketch I made for Rhaenys. It's like we've been working on the same project!😁

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@Gloire_bb Would love to tackle the Andal/Seven Kingdoms period on my spare time one day though, now that would be fun ^^

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@Gloire_bb Joke and fantasy world fun aside, developing a comprehensive timeline for the whole of ASOIAF was a bit beyond the scope of this project. But Aegon II being less than a couple centuries away from Robert's Rebellion, I'm fine with late med plate armour sticking around 150 years.

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@Knightly_H What a time to be on the internet! I feel like I should comment more often under your posts, but I'm loving every one of them, with that slow and squishy brain of mine! 😊

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@bacon_soy Haha thanks. I did make a cape-less sketch for reference too. Funny what difference it makes to the silhouette. ^^

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@Knightly_H Hey thanks a lot! I'm glad you're enjoying it! 😊
Thanks for all your work sharing knowledge and references!! 🙏

[Prosper Tipaldi @Prospass]

@dsanen1 Well, we do need to see more of these 15th century padded shoulders 😄
