Vanilla Skins of 13th Century Europe

This pack is something of a departure from my earlier mods, being over 600 years removed from the vast majority of them. However, I noticed a distinct lack of medieval content on the workshop, with the only medieval European skin pack being quite dated and historically inaccurate. To solve this problem, I made this from scratch. These skins are mostly based on French and Spanish illustrations, but should work with much of Europe at the time, such as Great Britain, the Holy Roman Empire, much of Italy, Scandinavia, some other Central European entities, etc. The skins are in a Vanilla style (i.e., they’re team-colored), but I plan on releasing a much bigger multiskin separately containing historically accurate colors and troop counts in the near future.
Contains:
Knight – Noble heavy cavalry. With his burdensome great helm and 40 pounds of chainmail, he’s glad he gets to ride a horse.
Man-At-Arms – Whether he’s a lesser noble or just not as wealthy as one of the knights, this mounted soldier is wearing an older style of armor.
Sergeant – This elite infantryman can hold his own in a fight, but unfortunately forgot protection for his legs.
Soldier – He thinks his padded gambeson will save him from your couched lance. Prove him wrong.
Peasant – This poor soul was taken from his family’s farm and levied into some noble’s lance. Little more than arrow fodder.
Bonus: Multiskin containing all of the above…and much more!
Special thanks to King_Creepalot for providing me with the multiskin script, and to Chai for creating the script in the first place.
For the most part, these skins were based on the illustrations found in the Maciejowski Bible and the Cantigas de Santa Maria, but they also draw from other contemporary manuscripts. The chainmail texture[www.deviantart.com] was created by one jojo-ojoj[www.deviantart.com] on Deviantart. The sword and horse in the thumbnail were taken from the Anno Domini 1257 mod for Mount and Blade: Warband. Weapons in the screenshots are from King_Creepalot‘s Melee Weapons Pack and the horse is OspreyGunner‘s.
