You're having fun?

Despite being a size of a large cat (not counting his tail!) Rim isn't really heavy. He takes up quite a lot of place in the backpack, but he can also perch comfortably on Iwona's shoulders, which he often does.

When he isn't causing mischief, scouting, or hunting mice, that is.

anyone know if bookbinding glue works on canvas? im thinking i want to add a shield to my halloween costume next year and am trying to figure out how to attach the front

[grirnoires]

[borom1r]

…would it be helpful for anyone if I compiled all my notes/references for armor/appendages + clothing?

i’m mostly thinkin abt this from th perspective of a LotR fanfic author bc while we can find a ton of good visual references they’re also 1) costumes meant for actors, not actual practicality and 2) th visual references don’t generally have accurate names

[knightswork]

Some progress on my gambeson upgrade.

It was super rough in the beginning.

Once I started doing the edge work the shape started to improve.

[ehlnofay]

FINALLY figured out what the kvatch armour is. it’s a SURCOAT. still not a bloody cuirass but at least it makes sense to me now... only at this point I’ve been thinking of it as a gambeson for so long I don’t know that I want to change it in my mind. hmmmm

ser vardis egen have you considered that you don't need to wear plate armour on top of mail. one or the other would be enough

[petermorwood]

And with that, a Relevant-To-My-Interests button has been pushed - not just jack chains, but textile armour in general... :->

NB, I've tried, with only a couple of exceptions, to use historical rather than modern examples.

First, an explanation of What Is What.

*****

Jack chains were metal plates and strips linked like a length of chain, laced to the sleeves of a jack for extra protection.

So what's a jack?

A jack ("arming-JACKet"), was a layered, quilted or padded waist- or hip-length garment worn under armour or indeed as armour, with or without extra metal bits strapped on.

The later "jack-of-plate(s)" had small overlapping metal plates sewn with heavy thread between the layers, and were often finished with decorative cloth - figured velvet, embroidered silk etc. - for looks, concealment or both.

Brigandines were similar, but secured the small plates with rivets, not stitching, and while they too were frequently completed with a decorative layer, the rivet-heads usually weren't concealed but were an ornamental feature like studs on modern leather jackets.

Both jacks and brigandines were torso armour, sometimes with shoulder-to-bicep extensions, usually not even that. A brigandine-wearer's full arm protection was more often a long-sleeved mail shirt or the appropriate pieces of plate armour...

...while the sleeves of a jack of plates were made to match the garment and fastened in place like this:

These were usually only padded, not plated, with the insides of the elbows left unpadded for ease of movement. The most obvious visual difference is that a brigandine looked like armour, while a jack of plates was tailored to resemble the fashionable "peascod" doublet of the period.

*****

Here are some examples of jack-chains in media:

Though maybe older media than @the-punforgiven intended... :->

This last couple are a bit broad for mere "chains". One is more like some form of splint armour, the other is the vambrace-couter-rerebrace (proper names for forearm-elbow-bicep plates) of a full armour worn, as was often done over mail, without their inner plates.

*****

For all the frequent appearance of gambesons, jupons, brigandines and jacks in medieval art, which suggests they were fairly common...

...padded or layered textile armour with or without metal add-ons doesn't show up in modern illustrations or on screen anything like as often as it should.

While there are lots of modern photos of reenactors in jack chains , here's the only modern illo I've found, by FF69 on Deviantart.

On screen in particular, I'd guess the non-presence of textile armour is because it's not something a modern audience has been trained to accept, even though they'll not blink at all sorts of other clichés:

Everything that dives makes the same noise as one particular aircraft;

Swords go "Schinggg" every time they're drawn or catch the light or even move;

Leather fetish gear is effective armour since studded leather looks so tough (biker associations?) even when it often covers so little;

And so on.

However...

Since it's never been set up over decades, something far more historically accurate but which resembles a quilted down vest would be more problematic.

If someone wearing that down vest took a body-blow from a weapon without Graphic Death - which can happen on-screen even to people in full plate armour if they aren't important enough to survive such things - it would be greeted with scorn by all except Those In The Know.

*****

Textile armour is well-known as padding under mail, dispersing any blunt-impact trauma. However I have an unconfirmed theory that the mail was also in part to preserve the textile armour's integrity so that it, and ultimately the human body inside, didn't become, er, unstuffed...

Here's what mail without proper padding does to a body - and that's just a combination of close fit and tight corset.

Now imagine what a spear, sword or axe-blow delivered with malicious intent would do, especially with a backing of ribs, spine or pelvis to supply the chopping-block effect. Um... Ouch?

*****

This tomb-effigy (of Fernán Pérez de Andrade, Spain, late 14th century) is an interesting variant since it shows mail along with steel gauntlets and bascinet, and a thickly quilted jupon on top.

These drawings show details of the effigy a bit more clearly.

A jupon was a padded outer garment often decorated with heraldic symbols or colours, making it a literal "coat of arms". The Black Prince had one emblazoned with the arms of England, and reconstructing it was the subject of this episode of "A Stitch In Time":

Mail and padding "in the wrong order" appears in medieval art as well; one of the jack-chain pictures shows it (the man in the white jack, top right, wears mail underneath rather than on top). However these are far less common than "in the right order" worn under mail.

*****

Even though padded or layered textile armour-garments (which research suggests weren't as thick as previously believed) could often reduce the effect of cuts and thrusts by themselves, they don't LOOK as if they could no matter how many chains or bits of plate are attached to them.

In visual media, what looks (im)possible counts for a lot, despite so many other impossibilities accepted without a second thought.

*****

Having said all that, this well-worn modern repro with chains in place, mitten gauntlets, couters, no studs anywhere and leather only as gauntlet liners or lace-hole reinforcements, looks pretty damn tough...

...and its wearer, if male, would have to wear designer stubble and a Jason Statham Scowl™ at all times, or risk being drummed out of the "I'm A Serious Badass" Society.

YMMV on the veracity of that last statement, of course... :->

Y'know, I'm kinda surprised I haven't seen Jack Chains more in fantasy tbh, like it's a really interesting and low budget armor style, I'm legit surprised I've almost never seen it in media

[medievalsnippets]

Then they seized a certain item of clothing (the costliest) – which we call a ‘jack’ – and hoisted it up on a lance as a target at which to shoot their arrows. And when they only did a little damage shooting forcefully at it, they pulled it down and rent it with axes and swords. Source: Medieval Arms and Armour, A sourcebook. Volume I

fiddling with poses and whether the figure under my armour sketches make sense. really like this arm idk

[greenlaut]

the four hunters 🗡🌿

extras + rambles below cut

yipeee i finally finished this illustration 🎉🎉

this is my personal take on the hunters gang (we will ignore that boromir died). honestly, i had a lot of fun thinking of the designs.

had to bring back my aragorn with his silly braid and blue hair ribbon. he's a ranger for most of his life, so he'd definitely go for practicality and what he's already familiar with—so no armour nor gambeson. he probably had a small fight with elrond before they left for the quest; where elrond tried to make him swap his gear for better, newer ones and aragorn just adamantly refusing because he's a lot more familiar (and more comfortable) with his own. which is why he's wearing tattered and worn rags. his red tunic is the only new thing he allowed elrond to swap to a new one. boromir definitely got exhasperated and somewhere down the line, he loaned aragorn his pair of arm bracers.

boromir (and faramir's (not featured here)) design changed a lot since the past years. it's a mash-up of both movie!boromir and lore accurate book!boromir. his hair is a lot darker and he has more of a storm blue-grey eyes as a nod towards his elendil ancestry. his clothing is heavily based off the movie. as for his cloak; since he's The son of gondor and denethor's favourite, i think he'd definitely get the fortune of wearing a fur cloak. the clasp has the white tree engraved on it.

gimli is by far my favourite. i always wanted to draw my take of gimli in his regalia. as a dwarven royalty, i think he'd groom his hair and beard really well, and he would've put on a lot of accessories to show his status. but since he's on a quest, he's not fully decked out in jewelries—wearing very practical clothing: gambeson with chainmail underneath. also, i like the dwarven fighting style they did in the hobbit movie where they go around and knock people off with melee. so gimli got hefty arm bracers and knuckle weights to really punch the shit out of some orcs.

for legolas; i think despite being an elf, he has the factors of being (1) mirkwood elf and (2) lowkey autistic coded. so he doesn't dress "like an elf"—not that the company would've known, with how limited their interactions with elves in general already. this meant that he dressed too casually despite going on a life-or-death quest. very light leather armour to support his speed and agility. he's not even wearing boots; just a pair of tree-climbing canvas shoes that he wrapped tightly. god knows how he survived this far. he's mostly a right handed archer—but since he lived for quite a long while, he taught himself to shoot with left hand too for emergencies. since his left hand isn't as stable as his right hand, he has a left-shoulder-pad.

THEY ALL HAVE SCARS because who doesn't get scars when you're literal warriors be fr. legolas' are more faded out though, because he's old as fuck.

✨complaining about gabriels armour yay✨

DISCLAIMER (please read): - i am doing this for fun. this is not a serious post. - this is not a criticism of gabriel's character design. - gabriel is an angel. obviously angels function differently to humans. the armour of angels in ultrakill could be purely decorative for all i know, but im evaluating it in terms of protection in relation to human anatomy. - i often specifically refer to protection against swords. this is because i am basing my knowledge off of medieval armour. (what im saying is: i know v1 uses guns im not stupid) - im not an expert on armour. i read about it for fun, as a hobby. if i get something wrong, PLEASE tell me i love getting new information about armour and i do not want to unintentionally spread misinformation.

initially i did a quick assessment of the gaps in the armour, which would be weak points. while ive seen some interpretations of gabriel wearing a sort of bodysuit, he is definitely not wearing a gambeson. this would make the armour uncomfortable to wear as there would be no padding under it.

the rest of the armour evaluation is in the images below. all of the text is also written out in the image descriptions.

after all this nitpicking, i decided to try to redesign gabriel's armour to make it more protective while keeping it similar to his original design and still recognisable as gabriel ultrakill.

• lowered pauldrons so they're not floating

• added an aventail to the helmet to protect his neck

• the golden parts of the cuirass no longer go inwards

• didnt add couters because i suck at drawing them but lets pretend that i did that to stay closer to his original design (besides he still has the elbow pieces on his vambrace to provide some defence)

• his gauntlets have articulated fingers now

• tassets are laminated rather than the layers he originally had. in retrospect i should have done tassets of three lame and decorated them similarly to gabriels original design but oh well

• i also imagine that he would be wearing a hauberk under the skirt

• added extra plates to the poleyns as well as side fins

• he's got proper sabatons now

• also he would be wearing a gambeson under his armour

• helmet is more like a visored bascinet

• there are actual holes for ventilation now, and there's more of them.

• there are also holes for vision yay

• didn't want to get rid of the gold bit that goes around the helmet so i changed the shape so that weapons wouldn't get caught on it, but would instead skate off. i think it should come closer to the visor on the side profile though. thank you for reading all of this i had a lot of fun doing this :-)
