Great impression.
Excellent.
Laudes off me too.
Just purely out of curiosity and nothing else, why Hospitaller rather than Templar or Teutonic even ?

it was just fun to do. i used the statute of 1206 to base the kit around. A friend of mine wanted to make a kit for it so I made one as well. besides, don't templars have to shave?

Nope, the rule stated that they had to be UN-shaven. :wink:

Great looking set up!! I would have hate to worn all that black over the armor and go tromping through the desert, I guess they hadnt realized that dark absorbs heat and light colors reflect it. All the best, Jon

Apparently, it creats a thermal updraft effect, which aids in cooling...so the theory goes!

my father has a own room in our house to store his medieval re-enactment stuff...armor and weapons to equip a dozen men...furthermore dozens of surcoats (templar, deutscher orden, lazarus orden...) and several shields he made himself...
gotta make a pic dressed as a mighty templar...
