That's messed up.

That's messed up.

Hahahaha - I like the long exposure shot btw

 

[Scovie]

That's not a "long exposure" shot. Sum is just like that. You should see him chop an onion, all Matrix and sheeit.

I don't always listen to Pitbull, but when I do, I look for my white Italian leather shoes.

Sum has the wings of an angel!

 

[Rawkstah]

Nice Goro (Mortal Kombat) shot Sum.  I did a similar one with Ahmed, but like FD said wings of an angel, doesn't quite work on a martial artist…  I did get him to dress up a bit for me, remember the hat?

Awesome! Did you buy anything?

Awesome! Did you buy anything? 

Unfortunately not... At the moment i really don't have time for that (nor money since i have to buy some photo stuff). I hope in 3 years to join some friend of mine in this.
A friend of mine spent 170€ for a good sword and other for a vest.
 
Btw other shots:
 

 

 

Arrosticini con polenta. Lamb meat. That was my main purchase. Other was cider and medieval flavored wine.
 

 

 
Here selections for battle of nations:

Looks like fun! I'd like to try the sword fighting… How heavy is all that armor?

Looks like fun! I'd like to try the sword fighting… How heavy is all that armor?

I've heard that could go up to 25 kg~55 lbs if full plate armor and chain, Full plate is really really expensive, i didn't check prices but i've heard that could easily cost 1500€. Chain is much cheaper (and a guy told me rather useless against impact).
There are other lighter options as gambesons (above a chainmail or not), leather armours... Of course most mandatory pieces are gauntlets and helms, but i don't really know more...
I've not understood how much maces and axes are allowed, it's too dangerous stuff.
Just to clarify: guys above were really hitting, in head too, one had his armor broken, a piece felt, and had to retire. At least i didn't see lunges... I've heard a fighter after some fights speaking with someone about using ice on fingers...
 
I saw only 2 with full plate,one was this one on left:

The other was a Miss... There were 2 girls, unfortunalely i left before seeing them fighting...
I believe others had chainmail (or even without)...
 
Here the biggest and most impressive sword (sided with an equaly bigger but with regular blade):

too bad i couldn't take a decent pic... I don't know if it is actually useable...
 
Axes and maces:

 

 

 

 

 
Another armour:

 
And here maybe the most furious assault:
