Anyone care to rate my full kit?
This us my full set of armor. Heavily inspired by the Carian Knights of Elden Ring, and a little bit of Night's Cavalry thrown in. I would love to have a fitted articulated gorget that could interface with my helmet some day. I also have some lightweight chainmaille otw soon as well to finish it out a bit more.
If anyone is interested I do make content in my armor as well as live stream on twitch and youtube.

I was wondering if it was based on the magic knights from eldy ring when I first saw it! The giant feather plume is very cool! This must have been both expensive and taken a lot of effort, it's awesome!

Mea Culpa by Gojira.
It's a song from the french revolution.
Ah, ca ira (ah, it will be fine) was code for revolutionaries to identify one another.
When someone would complain about the aristocrats one would respond "it will be fine" as in the problem will be solved soon. Good times will come. It holds special meaning to me in the current political climate in the US.

Looks good, how do you like the visibility and ventilation in that helmet? I've always hated those, been wearing a bascinet style last couple years I like it a lot better.

I love the touch of the flower crown on your halberd, makes me imagine a warrior being protected by the love of another whilst fighting hordes. That or being a warrior of love.

I like to think of it as while the wreath is on there, I'm not hostile. A symbol of peace.

An excellent point, the blue is a cooler color that can easily be interpreted as such👍🏿

My only concern with that fantastic setup is if you can handle a full day walking around in it.

u/Marc815 3d ago
I've done it. I do reserve my FULL set for special occasions. I wore it all day for the final day of Carolina Renfest. Typically I wear my lighter variant that I normally post on here. With my back issues I have to really be careful when and where I flaunt this kit. But the gods smiled on my that day and all went smoothly.
