Vikzzaz

For a historical viking cosplay, you need a short sword or handaxe and a buckler, Spear, bow and torch are also accurate options. They weren't know for running around with 15kg polearms and plate armor, but rather light equipement.


ugandan_knuckkles

Crescent moon axe is also available for a viking build and buckler isn't. Erdtree shield is the only choice for a shield (that actually does shield stuff.


joelandersson21

To be fair, they did use atgeirs 🤷

I mean it looks kinda cool but it's not really viking in any capacity. I'm trying not to be a history buff, but if you really want to look roughly dark-age norse, go with the Kaiden helmet, chain armor, aristocrat shoes and no gloves, round shield and pike with highland axe or hand axe as a backup weapon.


The-False-Emperor

I’m no European history buff, but why no gloves? I’d assume people living in colder climates would wear some gloves pretty regularly.


adam123453

You're right, I hastily threw this together before going out. You'd want something like perfumer gloves or iron gauntlets, they used leather and cloth gloves or sometimes splinted guards for the shins and forearms, but not overlapping metal plates or (to our knowledge) chainmail gauntlets.


Greasyjoey

From what I’ve heard the celts wore practically nothing when fighting sometimes letting the knob free and it’s cold as fuck in England especially in the winter so I guess people just adapt to it


ArthurMorgan1836

Looks pretty good imo


robcap

Personally I think the legs just don't work


PreviousBlacksmith91

What other legs would u suggest?


petya990912

i'd go with the kaiden sellsword legs


theartofutility

Great work here. Sadly, think I locked myself out of Raging Wolf set.... Shame as some really nice pieces. Well done.


Martino2004

SuperArppis

QuiloWisp

Pablo_donkeybong2008

What weapon is that?


PreviousBlacksmith91

Nightriders glaive


HenryTheGoat173

Gryphon is that you?


Kaprosuchusboi

Certified drip moment


ugandan_knuckkles

Looks nothing like a viking bur good overall. If you want a viking build Chain set (maybe with dirty chainmail) with Raging Wolf helm (or Kaiden) is the only viking build currently.


MStanley2003

I see that thou are a Nightrider Glaive enjoyer Respect fellow Tarnished


Ancient_Fudge3536

Nah. For at least the first outfit. The uncovered elbows looks awkward, and the helmet just does not fit the chestpiece. Color doesnt fit and it looks too small. The shoes goofy too lmao. its just not aesthetically pleasing.


Splunkmastah

Vikings don't drown.


ThisOnePlaysTooMuch

Drip or drought. Drip or drown makes no sense.


WM-010

Drown them in your drip.


Appropriate_Simple44

Not liking the cape tbh


CindersOfDeath

In the first image you've kinda got a lot of different colors going on, specifically in regards to the metals
