[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 9391821, member: 18"] Okay yes I can't argue with that! No-one who has ever owned or cared for a cat could believe a cat would look that happy whilst being made to wear a hat like that. I know this is fantasy but, sir, there are LIMITS to my credulity! The chain is definitely the least-offensive of the three, for sure. Though that it is probably "chain mail" not "chain shirt" is a little upsetting given it offers zero leg or thigh or groin protection despite being Heavy armour. The "stab me here pls" cut-off top on the leather is insane. Like, come on, if you're going to go that silly, just actually have a cut-off top - at least people can admire your hard-worked-for abs that way! The scale is kind of viscerally appalling to me because it's just so utterly bland and awful-looking, and the bracers are one the dumbest things I've ever seen. Like for god's sake, they'd be the same as the chain. There's no earthly reason to put a bunch of tiny scales on them when you're using PLATE to protect the fingers! Furthermore, the scales on the bracers are THE WRONG WAY UP - they will catch a weapon and pull in INTO you arm, rather than deflecting it! Truly bad. Like actually bad. Like artist didn't even care enough to Google up what real armour looked like for 30 seconds, or even think about how it worked just rationally. [/QUOTE]
