Here's my newest soft kit... Haven't put a lot of time and work into it yet but it's coming together well. The representation is of a German Ministeriale c. 1200. The clothing is all from Historic Enterprises, and I made the Phyrgian cap, draw-string pouch (which is actually very accurate for the era!) and scabbard/baldric combination myself. The sword is an Albion Squire 13th Century Knightly Sword, which I've been digging the whole time I've had it and I'm waiting to do some cool modifications to it once summer strikes. Finally, the turnshoes are from Revival Enterprises... Not a lot of people put much effort into this era, and it isn't really one of my favorites even, in the scheme of things. It's new to me, though, and the mystique of the Crusades is starting to grab hold of me one ball at a time when I realize the magnitude of the events played out during the late 12th century in the Holy Land. Fun stuff.
Cheers!
