I wouldn't say so, there were definitely cuirassier's armours that rival it and even simple Italian armour provides about the same amount of protection, just isn't as beautiful.

@@virtuallyreal5849I would disagree as the Italian armours I assume you refer to were not yet at the point of complete incasement of the user in plate (though quite a few Maximilian armours aren’t either), even in regions such as the area just above the calf and below the thigh instead usually using mail in those regions.

@@thatonelad4594 Maximillian armour also uses mail armpits, if you mean that Maximillian pauldrons are more protective it varies wildly so I have to disagree.

@@virtuallyreal5849 I’m talking about specific examples of Maximilian armour which plate adaptations in regions like the armpits which basically no previous armours had meaning around the era of Maximilian armour it did basically reach its pinnacle according to the examples I’m talking about

A good example of what I mean is the foot combat armor of Giuliano de’ Medici.

Makes it gay.

It can have a split in the front and back for riding (and looking more like a waist cape)

the movement of the camera should tell you its 3d, unless you just mean to compliment the work! it is very very very impressive

@@j.am501 no i was actualy confused, it looks real but the way the camera moved was un human.

oh hey, seen you in bloody bastards comments lol

Lol what

What do you mean? They look pretty normal.

yeah, most heavy armor helmets greatly diminishes vision, as well as making breathing difficult, and making your voice harder to be heard Small price to pay for not dying

These visors are excellent for observing the flight of birds.

And a problem to ride a horse. The groin is open but the space in the skirt is to narrow and can't be used for horse riding.

@@vitalyromas6752 The skirt is articulated. I would be shocked if this armour doesn't permit squatting and riding.

Totally understand as another modern person lol, though you really like it when wearing the stuff. It lets you bend at the waist almost completely unimpeded, supports the weight of the harness, and I’ve also found it helps keep the back straight. Armour is good for your posture!

@@robertusaugustus2003 true, but they also had those really long pointed feet so they had advantages in some places and disadvantages in others.

@@watchonjar long toes on armour were usually detachable for when going into actual combat

@@watchonjarit was modeled after fashionable footwears at the time so it's not an armor thing

It looks great though lol, on top of being practical

How?

​@@THE_NEW_CRUSADER it has a face, that seems weird

@@Beelzebufo_ampinga what does that have to do with virginity?

@@THE_NEW_CRUSADER i didn't say YOUR virginity, I meant it as only a virgin would put a nose on a helmet

@@Beelzebufo_ampinga True 👍 who would put a nose on a helm?
