Title: Ailettes
Post by: SirNathanQ on 2012-05-19, 02:19:40
Here are my Teutonic Ailettes. They are period from about 1270-1350. Mine are thicker than typical historic examples as to provide some form of shoulder protection when worn.

Enjoy!  :)

Ok, I'm spacing, what was their original purpose again?

some say armour (think wooden haute gaurds), others purely heraldry and display, some both.

I know which function I want mine to fill  ;)

Nicely done! I still need to get around to doing mine sometime too. Seeing other people finish theirs is good motivation. :)

They're alright. I've got straight A's. The thing is what school's wrapping up, so teachers stopped giving homework and focused on studying for the finals and my AP exams. Thus I had lots of time to work on projects.  :)
