Quote:Hmmmm, what is the triangle supposed to represent?
Looks like what I used to draw as a kid!
From the moment I saw this I knew it reminded me of something. Took a while to ponder it but it resembles the standard to the right of the Mars figure on the Oosterbeek sword scabbard mouth plate. I don't have a photo or drawing to hand but the Mars is the one I used as the logo for Arma back in 1989 and that standard (which is quite recognisable as such) features the same triangle (a triangular vexillum? A square vexillum blown back at the corners? Who knows...). For those of you who have Miks' book, it is A549 on Taf. 209.
If it is intended as a standard, then it is all crossbars and pendant straps, which makes it a little weird, but then life tends to be weird in my experience. Of course, standards are not what they used to be ;-) )
