Armour review suggestions please

👍

If we can still throw in more to the list I'd love you to look at both male and female Byleth from Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Specially for them comparing their standard/war armor. The stuff from the box art and animated cutscenes

Great. Let’s keep it related to that one and have Mordred from Fate/Apocrypha. And just to be clear, the actual armour, not the outfit that’s basically sleeves, leggings, a loincloth, and a strap around the breasts. I feel pretty safe in assuming what category that would fall into

Darius Engineer

Add another, why not? :D

Jill Bearup

Thanks. Just to clarify, is it okay if I make another suggestion since Artoria was already taken or would you prefer we leave it at this?

Darius Engineer

Artoria from Fate: Stay Night is on an extended video already but I haven't covered Edelgard Emperor Class stuff yet! https://youtu.be/0NNffHRbeJg?t=783

Jill Bearup

Nice, I'll add it to the list!

If we’re still aloud to submit suggestions I’d like Edelgard Emperor Class armour from Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Artoria Pendragon (Saber) from the Fate series

I thought of one! The armor that is used in the original Dragonheart movie. All the characters with lines seem to have different armors and range in style. You could probably get 2 episodes out of this one.

Aloys armor in horizon forbidden west

Its guy armor, but the leather raincoat outfits in Brotherhood of the Wolf. I seem to recall there was a woman who did some impressive fighting in that movie, but IIRC her outfit is squarely in "not really armor." :)

I am seconding the suggestion of Female Byleth (any armor) and Edelgard from Fire Emblem Three Houses.

Online, there are a ton of examples of armor manufactures making armor pieces which fit their beefy bodies and then photographing the armor on petite models.

How about a video on fit and encumbrance? For example in Excalibur where the armor fits so poorly that it shifts around on the knights bodies as they try to move. Or several other show scenes where someone is wearing fake armor, told to move as if the armor was real, and end up slowly lumbering about to the point of the armor being a huge detriment instead of an advantage.

How about Melania of Elden Ring? I can't say too much to avoid spoilers but her character design has some fairly interesting armor.

How about revisiting the world of A Knight's Tale. Just watched your video review of it from the stuff you like years ... Loved it. I'm sure your now more educated eye can add some but commentary on Kate's armor choices. You could even throw a few more naked Chaucer shots in there for good measure.

There’s an episode in the last season of Sylvester McCoy’s run on Doctor Who called “Battlefield” which has an Arthurian flavor. Would be interested in your your thoughts on Morgaine and Mordred’s armor, and Ancelyn‘s…well, it’s not armor per say. Battledress, maybe? The episode itself it a bit cringey and a feels like a hot mess of editing, but the gear looked interesting to my utterly ignorant eye. :) Edit: upon further inspection, not sure if Ancelyn's get up warrants your time. I leave that (and indeed, any of my suggestions) to you. Cheers.
