Armor is rather critical to any kind of warrior, whether it’s modern day (think Kevlar) or medieval or pure fantasy or even mental, and it constantly amazes me the creative ways that different designers attack it (sorry, it’s late and I get a bit punny)…This is a completely different take on armor than my last post… I feel that both are exceptional & are designed beautifully for different uses. IMHO, the key to good armor is finding the right balance between protection and mobility. Different styles of armor are needed for different uses and situations. There are so many stories about knights of yore toppling over and then, because of the weight of their armor, being unable to rise and defend themselves. But just because I’m not in a battle, it doesn’t mean that my body doesn’t need any protection out alone in this sometimes harsh world. This beautifully articulated set is designed to protect the legs and the ribs, which is all I need for my daily trips into the forest with my trusty axe… As I like to think of it, it’s lightweight but heavy duty where it counts!!! (It’s also quite helpful in those crowded weekend shopping venues where folks are pushing and shoving to get at the latest deals lol)… Speaking of which, it’s weekend, and it’s time to start doing all those things that manage to escape getting done during the week… Happy weekend!!!
- Outfit: Noble Creations – Arcane Armor. Sized for Legacy F/Perky, Slink HG/P, Freya, & Maitreya, the armor is available in both iron (worn) & black. The leg armor (which is sold separately from the top) consists of separated pieces (thighs, calves, knees, & laces) for a very detailed realistic look & so that you can use the knee, calves, thighs & foot parts singly or in any combination. It even looks comfortable for day wear (as opposed to true battle armor), & is a rather sexy look for armor. The top armor (includes the panty which has a hide/show option) is available at the main store; the leg armor is available EXCLUSIVELY at the October round of The Liaison Collaborative, Believe in Magic, open through Nov 10th.
