Fantastic shots Michael! Thanks for posting. The (what looks like) Italian (Venetian?) storta on the far left of the last few pics looks awesome. Definitely one of my favourite blade shapes. Here's another for comparison.
I won't bother commenting on the armour too much  it's mind blowing. The amount of work poured into these gothic and maximilan suits is incredible. I especially enjoy the lifelike face plates. The extensive decorative treatment makes me wonder amout modern weapons. How many soldiers or indeed armies bother decorating and personalizing their equipment. The closest thing I can think of is this shark face on an A-10 warthog...different times  Many thanks for sharing! Emanuel |
