Milanese Mitten Gauntlets and Spaulders
A quick mid-week armor post. Got a pair of Milanese Mitten Gauntlets and Spaulders today - 16 gauge
mild steel. They fit very nicely, and will be part of a Mid-15th C. Italian export armor kit. The Gauntlets have very nice brass buckles.
Hope to post pics of the rest of the kit soon. Alas, still no new brushwork from me.

DeleteAny miniatures painting projects you may have during March? I miss your painted units etc.
I must say, love your WAB and War of the Roses armies.
cheers,
No worries, Phil. I was trying to be funny in kind. I've committed to hosting a WotR game at Enfilade in May. Maybe you can make it this year? Warm regards Dean
DeleteNice, real nice Dean!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rodger! With these latest additions I'll be able to morph my kit into the mid-15t C. Around the time of the War of the Roses. Best, Dean
DeleteThese look rather fab mate. Sir Dean shall look rather spiffy in them!
ReplyDeleteThank you kindly, Simon. The gauntlets fit like a glove. :) Kind regards Dean
DeleteMore shiny goodies, this is quite a collection you have now Dean.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michael. Well, it is March Madness :) Regards, Dean
DeleteGreat looking Gauntlets !
ReplyDeleteThanks, Phil. They are indeed very cool - guess it was a design improvement of sorts to the previous Hourglass style. Less chance of individual fingers being lopped off :) Best, Dean
