There's a couple cool pictures on there. I'm not sure anybody will be the lady in armor. Seems like the more popular pictures are LARPy/Fantasy ones.

I think I saw this on AA, the contest...I can't see FB but someone posited that this entry would win (if it were posted, I don't know).  I would agree.

That would be Grace Holley, in the armor from Shroud by Jetre Films. Oddly enough, she didn't star in the movie - Nicole Leigh V-something did. It was an indie/low budget movie, but I liked it, and the very end was a cool surprise twist. I've been trying to find the DVD for quite some time.

Grace Holley.  Thank you for putting a name to my personal goddess-in-arms.  ;)

Nicole Leigh Verdin played the lead in Shroud but I did not see one bit of armor goodness in the trailer...just a drawing with '1410' written above it.  Weird.  But the trailer looked interesting...

Ah, Verdin, yep that's her. The armor is only featured towards the end of the movie, and there's a mish-mash of whips, axes, guns, sword and armor. It was a good movie, considering the budget. I'm partial to the dark hair, here's Nicole in the armor with the sword:

If you look closely at the picture, there's actually armor in it too. ;) Ugo Serrano and Patrick Thaden made it.

Verdin's sweet, no doubt about that, but...I'd still take Grace...something about redheads.

Oh, and lest I forget, Snow White will be in armor as well.  STOKED.

Oh, I caught the snarky little remark, just didn't feel the need to point it out- but thank you nonetheless, Sir Edward.  You may have noticed that I remarked as to the lack of armor in the trailer.  lol

Sorry, that wasn't intended as a snarky remark, it was a joke in that the beauty of the women in the photos might make us a bit blind to the armor - the armor being the second thing we'd notice, after the women. No offense meant. :(

Sure, sure...lol

I like how she holds that sword too.

Lord Dane, I think I may have to dub thee 'Threadromancer'.  lol

But you're right...the reds are the hottest.  Then blonds.  lol

Clearly couldn't put out that much money for a book without some previews first....

Sir James, I have that book...remind me to bring it with next time we get together so you can see it for yourself.  I paid $30 including shipping from lulu.com I believe - it isn't worth what the ebaY auction's selling it for, no way.

Please do bring it. I'll try to have some napkins or plastic nearby to catch drool. :)

You know...I think the cheap quality of some of the armor and weapons you see might mitigate the ga-ga factor a bit.  Just a bit.  But, doesn't hurt to be prepared, right?  ;)

Now I gotta find the book; I remember setting it down, where is the question.
