Wonderful to see it, and I'm looking forward to watching how you get on with the legs and helmet too. Are you planning an armet and wrapper? It will be interesting to discuss how you feel after wearing it for a few hours, and we can compare notes!

[@Boselaphus]

Great Idea Jason!

[@JustGrowingUp84]

After he gets his helmet, you will be able to compare notes on the hair as well! For me, as someone with short hair, the combination of long hair and armor seems quite challenging.

[@metatronyt]

Absolutely! yes, you read my mind, armet with a wrapper for the heavy configuration, and keep the barbute for a light configuration.

[@beardedbjorn5520]

@@JustGrowingUp84 I’ve always wondered why Jason never ties his hair up when putting his armour on.

[@MrNuserame]

@@JustGrowingUp84 As a long-haired lout having worn things like contruction and motorcycle helmet, I can say its not that big a deal. You just need to keep it in mind with the measurements as it can add a small amount to the circumference of your crown, but otherwise just leaving it hanging keeps it from bulking up in a single place

[@LarryGarfieldCrell]

Metatron has said before that he likes to go out around town wearing armor. I'm waiting for the videos of him strutting for the streets of Palermo in full plate, ordering pasta from a restaurant. This needs to happen.

I'm so happy for you and for the channel, because now you have lots and lots of stuff to speak about in new videos! That's great. With the armour on top you really look like a proud Italian condottiere, you only need a lance and a horse to ride and you are ready to join the fight for your Comune Cittadino or for your faction (I don't know if you prefer Guelfi and Pope or Ghibellini and the Emperor)! I can't wait to see the new videos that is going to come out on this channel (expecially I can't wait to see the new armet ;) )!

Absolutely stunning look. I love how so many historical KZbinrs (Matt Easton, Tobias Capwell, Shad Brooks, Modern History TV, Lindybeige etc.) are currently working specifically on late 15th century kits. What a marvellous time period it is.

[@markbyrd7710]

Then they can reenact together.

[@ThallanarRabidtooth]

The 15th century really was the best period in the Medieval era, since it was the last time something could be categorically called "Medieval", until it began evolving into the Renaissance period sometime around 1450. I love all kinds of clothing styles, armor styles, weapons and architecture from the blended period of 1450-1500. Of course, the reason I got into this specific period is because of Assassin's Creed 2, which took place in 1476-1499. I know AC isn't completely historically accurate but they romanticized so much of that period and made it accessible to so many people.

[@7dayspking]

Easton, Modern history TV and Tobias Capwell already had 15th century kits and for a long time.

[@7dayspking]

@@ThallanarRabidtooth I would say Assassin's creed 2 did the opposite of romanticize the era. They feel back on a lot of tropes to create a duller, modern take on it. To make the people of the time appear less sophisticated and technologically advanced. Most of that is probably down to historical accuracy not being the goal and ignorance from the majority of artists who built the game (Literally hundreds of people build assets, environments and art for an Assassin's creed game. We can guarantee most of them were not educated in this specific time period or place.)
