Crusaders were knights that delivered their religion through blood and battle. They jumped to thinking that Christianity was the only correct religion in the world (thinking the others were created by Satan), therefore causing a catastrophic war between the Church and other religions, most specifically the Muslims. Their goal was to preach the word of their lord through war and battle. They aim to eliminate all other religions, of course ,except their own. Their reign began in 1095,after being blessed by Pope Urban II. This continued until the 13th century. Crusaders have been made famous through the game "Assassin's Creed", wherein the Crusaders are the main antagonists.

I made this skin after watching reenactments of battles fought by Crusaders.

I experimented on more 3-D shapes, specifically on the helmet.I might change this skin, but I'm fairly happy with what I have made.

Nice! You did a good job of varying the pixel colors while not making it so "noisy" that it looses clarity.
