A bit about the design-We know almost nothing about the appearance of the latest Byzantines, so most of the armor on the figure is speculation. He has a coat of plates/brigandine, as this would have been a relatively cheap import from the West. He has a Turkish style sword, as Byzantines had been under heavy Turkish influence throughout the late period. He has a brimmed metal helmet typical of late byzantines, as is his triangular shield. This mini was REALLY difficult to make!

Looks very good, the only thing that looks a little off to me is the beard around the chin area of the face, quite possibly the photo though.
