the curse of doing historical research for art is that you’ll find stuff that looks sick as hell but from entirely the wrong time period/purpose. may god forgive me but i’m going to take Artistic Liberties

#on a related note i have a basic understanding of medieval armor now #and all the fancy embellished plate armor was used either for tournaments or parades #or by renaissance era mercenaries and not actual knights #idk if this is common knowledge or not but i didn't know #like they didn't really even have plate armor for the crusades or anything it was mostly mail
