Okay, I think I have it mostly figured out now.

Light mail and plate:

I'll redo the previous ones, then probably do the gambeson and maybe one or two more, and I should be done.

Would the mamluke mail be a viable heraldic shirt?

I mean changing the circle of the chest into a heraldic area tough might be small. Maybe the banner could still show only the lion instead of everything to make an example on your shirt.

I always loved it's looks apart of the circle on the chest.

This "circle" is called a mirror. It's the most important part of the armor, and should be well polished, as the brighter it shines, the better it protects the wearer from evil. Never would a wearer of such an armor paint over the mirror.

Doesn't look much like a mirror but I doubt It could work out anyway.

Anyway to stay on topic in my opinion the tunic over mail could be the best "light" heraldic armour.

Yeah I'm probably going to do that, too, as I use the white tunic over mail quite frequently myself. I plan to convert these armors, from lightest to heaviest:

- Linen Tunic (Shirt) and/or White Tunic
- Tabard
- Gambeson and/or Padded Cloth
- White Tunic over Mail
- Light Mail and Plate
- Coat of Plates
- Mail and Plate

If you have suggestions for other armors to convert, feel free to post them. Note that I can't really draw, though, so stuff without a plain front will probably not work.

These are awesome! We have been sorely lacking in light heraldic armours, hopefully the all mighty chadz will implement these.

But before you go making a heraldic version of the tunic over mail;
I think you will find that the Heraldic Mail armour in fact uses the exact same model as the Tunic over Mail, yet its stats are better.

Maybe chadz should just change the stats and name of the Heraldic Mail to that of the Tunic over Mail armours.

Haha, you are right. Saved me some work, thanks!

Here is the improved mail and plate, you can clearly see how the ornate thingies at the bottom of the heraldic area are much more defined now:

I like banners, I like more heraldy, cause the heaviest one is too heavy for my taste and the one before it is too light. This looks pretty good.

Nice work and agree to above post, not enough choices when it comes to heraldics, especially in the heavier gategory there is only transitional.

great work zagibu!

I was planning on making a few of these myself but you beat me to it! I'd also like to see more heraldic armor in-game. Maybe the lighter heraldic armor could be dirtier or something?

Do heraldic helmets (yes, it's possible).

Don't you have other things to do :). But seriously, you will probably have to redo them anyway, when you do the loomed versions. You are actually an artist, while I am just a monkey clicking some buttons at random, until something turns out better than it was before (progress through random incremental steps).

thank you so much for making these they look great

also ever thought of making the "washed out" look stay?

i would fit nicely they are not armor clad nobles it would fit seeing how some of the shields that show banners are faded and chipped i think it would look great

Yeah, I'm definately going to make them look a bit used, but not as if they had been washed a hundred times.
