The Armour is about 3/4 way down - but it is exceptional, especially the Chamfron!

That is pretty sweet! Horse-to-dragon conversion!
What's the piece below it, same pic?

Yow. Most impressive. Thanks for sharing!
Oh, East of sands and sunlit gulf, your blood is thin, your gods are few;
You could not break the Northern wolf and now the wolf has turned on you.
The fires that light the coasts of Spain fling shadows on the Eastern strand.
Master, your slave has come again with torch and axe in his right hand!

In the same vein, I discovered "ArtServe" the other day... WOW. I recommend browsing through EVERY SINGLE IMAGE under "arms and armor," ...slowly. After that, spend some time searching, there are quite a few images of arms and armor elsewhere on the site that haven't been categorized yet (such as these images from the Schatzkammer museum in Vienna: Great close-ups of the Sword of St. Maurice, its seldom-seen scabbard, the Sabre of Charlemagne, the Spear of Destiny... and that's not even half the images of interest from one museum!) Actually, the entire site is just fantastic, arms and armour is just a very small part of it.
My apologies if some of you were already familiar with this, but I was impressed. DAMN impressed.
