This is awesome, come to think of it.  There is a fantasy harness I do have in mind (will be put on the shelf for five + years or so) and here it is

Honora gladium meum, veritas mea, et Spirítui Sancto.  כדי לכבד המגן שלי, האמת שלי חרבי

Honor My Sword, Truth My Shield.

Came across this on facebook. I'd forego the leather bit strapped around the forearm, but I really like the overall kit. A lot.

Of course I can't see it...being linked to FB and all.  Anyone want to go ahead and upload it to the topic at hand for me?  :)

Caution: May cause temporary blindness from the epic coolness!





The shield is very unique - and awesome.

Not sure. It looks like they were entered into Christian Fletcher's "dog days" photo contest.

Nicely done, Sir James...thanks for doing that.  I like his fantasy kit...awesome.  The bottom pic makes it look like he's a lefty like me.  :)

Idk, w/o the shield, some minor modifications can put him in the early 14th century.
It's a nice kit BTW
I personally don't have very much of a desire to do a fantasy kit. I am already spending too much on this hobby as it is...... ;)
If anything, I would do a ranger/rouge.
Whenever I play a fantasy game (D&D) or so, I always imagine the characters wearing mostly accurate armour and such. (not from the same era mind you, but still)
To me it's a fusion of the historic and functional with the dramatic. (I myself covered that base by getting a big friggin mantle for my Teutonic Knight kit.)

"He is truly a fearless knight and secure on every side, for his soul is protected by the armor of faith just as his body is protected by armor of steel." -Saint Bernard of Clairvoux

Indeed it is. :) I can't remember the guy's name, but it was in the caption of the photo on FB.

The photo contest is fun. I always forget about it and don't have anything ready.

But this time I figured I'd throw my "sword in the stone" image his way.
