New coat of plates for the high era units

Nice work on the coat of plates!
Great work, those coat of plates look awesome.
The visor's size is fairly similar to the one pictured, but both the top and the bottom of your helmet's visor are a bit oversized.

Hm, I am not really sure I see the issue with the visor. I see it as relatively similar to this https://de.pinterest.com/pin/321514860873096421/
The problem might be that the unit is tilted forward a bit and as such the head looks bigger than it actually is Also this helmet model is already in the current build, it just has been retextured (again )
Not to mention we have a severe lack of 14th century gear to play with.
That's pretty neat.
I can't wait for the YouTube comments saying that it's a studded leather armour and that knights would actually have access to plate armour, yeah. Sigh. :3
The snout and hinges of the visor of this early 15th century Italian bascinet has been reworked and probably didn't form a single unit in it's original state.

Thorolf was thus armed. Then Thorolf became so furious that he cast his shield on his back, and, grasping his halberd with both hands, bounded forward dealing cut and thrust on either side. Men sprang away from him both ways, but he slew many. Thus he cleared the way forward to earl Hring's standard, and then nothing could stop him. He slew the man who bore the earl's standard, and cut down the standard-pole. After that he lunged with his halberd at the earl's breast, driving it right through mail and body, so that it came out at the shoulders; and he lifted him up on the halberd over his head, and planted the butt-end in the ground. There on the weapon the earl breathed out his life in sight of all, both friends and foes. [...] 53, Egil's Saga- The pranks played on the knight Jean de Joinville, 1249, 7th crusade.I must tell you here of some amusing tricks the Comte d'Eu played on us. I had made a sort of house for myself in which my knights and I used to eat, sitting so as to get the light from the door, which, as it happened, faced the Comte d'Eu's quarters. The count, who was a very ingenious fellow, had rigged up a miniature ballistic machine with which he could throw stones into my tent. He would watch us as we were having our meal, adjust his machine to suit the length of our table, and then let fly at us, breaking our pots and glasses.

I did not mean that it was incorrect, merely large.
There are bascinets with very large visors, it is just that I am used to the smaller ones.
Also, even most big ones do not look as big when you put them on;

...so I was just surprised by the size of the helm, nothing more.
Also, would be nice to see more flat visors, even though they are lacking in surviving examples, they are quite present in pictorial depictions;

Again, nothing wrong with the bascinet, it's just a very large one

I do have some bascinets in the works that are a very close fit for the head.
Nice stuff Sly
You could try the museum collections for design inspiration, they have a bunch of surviving flat visors at the Met;

Warman wanted me to make a bascinet that can swap out multiple visors, so I could probably use those as reference.
Pretty nice work Sly . Sorry about before.
