Looks good. IMHO I would have removed the rope and replaced it with something more fitting, since this is no longer in the rope contest, and now the rope looks kind of silly.

I think it should be feathers.. nice colored feathers.

added a metal point to the top of the knights helmet. Hope you like this a bit better. Feathers would be very cool Eladine, I just cannot find a good enough source.

or look for feather dusters elsewhere

also i think you should move the thing on the helmet a lil further to the left its off center now.

Thanks Eladine! I will try out feathers tomorrow.

Much better helmet now...GL author.

Nator that was actualy quite common in tournaments for knights to be all decorated.

This doesn't really look like a tournament scene ... it looks more like an Under Attack by a Giant Flying Reptile scene to me ... but just my opinion ... Great Job Author

Thanks everyone!
