Gorgeous armor. Twould cost many a gold piece to have it enchanted thusly.

"Art", like "artist" and "iconic" have become meaningless words to me.

Sais a person with three weird nostalgic playlists, reliving worn out pop culture.

@@Nick-sl7zc I think it's weird what you base your opinion on. As it if it matters what kind of playlists I may or may not have.
Just check RUclips. People call anything iconic now a day's. It's so over used that it has become meaningless. Same goes for art and artist. Art used to be significant in some way. Now it is just anything that is supposedly well made.
My opinion have little to do with these armours. It is just that often when I see these words used on RUclips I just stop listening kind of.
These armours are nice, and they might even be art. I don't see them as such.
