This is the guard (for a king or noble) I created for the Medieval / Dark Ages Skin Contest.
Usually during the medieval era regular soldiers were not well equipped, only the rich could afford decent armour and weapons. Elite guards where an exception, handpicked from the best warriors of the land, these men who have trained all their lifeo s to protect and serve the king. The guards did not pay for their own armour but it was funded by the king, this gave them the most recent techology and gave a big edge during battle. They were usually away from the front lines of battle guarding the king from any enemy breach in the formation but when in combat they were a formidable opponent willing to die in order to protect the king.
This type of guard is from the middle to later era of the medieval period, due to his use of a small amout of plate armour. Soilders from this time would also have chainmail under a tunic (which was used to stop the chain form getting to hot in the sun) for extra protection in the joints and gave more flexibility.
Thank you for taking the time to click on this post and hopefully read this. :)
I hope you have enjoyed reading a little about the history of elite guards and l really hope you like my skin!
