Adding schynbalds (front greaves) to an existing leg harness

<< < (2/2)

Sir William:

;)

Lookin good, Sir James.  I like the shaping on the cuisses and greaves.

Sir James A:
Thanks, all. Sir Ian, I'll post some pics later of the full harness, or at least where it is so far. I had to google for Crecy's year, but 1346 is pretty close to the 1360 I'm shooting for. I know a bit about armor, but years and most battles elude me. :)

Good catch! Shooting for 1360s, it's right around that transitional time, but schynbalds are still a valid (though less common) option. Citing from here: http://talbotsfineaccessories.com/armour/effigy/All-Effigies.htm
