A Hauberk Armour

Some dragonfied Irish foot soldiers I made for St. Patricks Day a couples days back!

So, this one took me longer than I expected. In addition, I fell victim to the seasonal flu, which further impeded my progress on my personal projects.

In any case, I am fairly happy with how this Klyuch "character reference" turned out. Chainmail armor is pretty underrated in media nowadays, so I really wanted do represent her wearing a hauberk, while still spicing her design up with some fancy belts, buckles and decorations.

While not fully consistent in itself, this image will definitely help me represent her more consistently in future illustrations. Now, of course, I need to do one for her face, as well as reference sheets for a number of other characters…

What do you mean this hauberk doesn't look feminine? It's literally a steel boyfriend shirt.

There are many instances of repair and refurbishment. A constant battle is waged against rust as attested by numerous payments for oil and bran: by rolling mail defences in a scouring barrel the bran acts as an effective abrasive. Elbow grease was often the most effective (and cost effective) 'substance'. For every piece of plate armour referred to as 'burnished' or 'white', a man (or boy) would be required to diligently polish it to a mirror finish. Emery from Alexandria was used on Edward of Caernarfon's harness and one pound of the stuff on Henry, earl of Derby's. There are white shammies for polishing hauberks and many bespoke trunks, coffers, and bags constructed for the carriage of weapons and armour.

The new jacket arrived, and it feels like a very light brigandine harness.

Thank you to my friends that got it for me as a surprise present. I don't know why you would do such a thing for me, but I am touched all the more because of it. I'm sorry Superior Fencing ruined the surprise, but it in no way lessened the sentiment.

It's not a perfect design (a little snugger than could be, the forearms have nothing for protection apart from the rigid plastic vambraces), but it's so very good to wear, and any deficiency in protection is of the kind that can be easily remedied. The overall range of protection and comfort is excellent.

It feels like a knightly harness. Not quite as bulky and heavy, I know, but almost. It feels good.

I am full of emotions composing this post, and I am not good at expressing them sufficiently because I have not had a very personal item gifted to me this way before, so I will express what I can with a quote to finish.

And ever, says Mallory, Sir Lancelot wept, as he had been a child that had been beaten.

[whats-in-a-sentence]

Where now is the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was blowing?

Where is the helm and the hauberk, and the bright hair flowing?

Where is the hand on the harpstring, and the red fire glowing?

Where is the spring and the harvest and the tall corn growing?

They have passed like rain on the mountain, like a wind in the meadow;

The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow.

Who shall gather the smoke of the dead wood burning,

Or behold the flowing years from the Sea returning?

Progress on a chainmail hauberk, it will split in the back and overlap. 4 leather straps will hold it together.

Day 21, Chains.

A norman warrior standing in armor for the “Chains” prompt : the catch is he’s wearing a full “chainmail” hauberk (yeah, another prompt where I had literally no idea on what to do)…
