Knight from the Duchy of Leuven (c.1330)
Situated beside the Dijle river, and near to the stronghold of the Dukes of Brabant, Leuven became, between the 11th and 14th centuries, the most important centre of trade in the Duchy of Brabant.

Awesome!

Living in America I am always jealous of the history surrounding other parts of the world. In America, apart from Native American ruins and the Viking settlements, we consider things like a 200 year old house "historic"  While I still enjoy that part of history that we have here, I envy not being engrossed in thousands of years of it. (I dont live close enough to the Mayan, Aztec, etc stuff to see that either :/)

[Artyem]

I'd love to see William the Conqueror, preferably an earlier version during his initial conquest, not the later fall off of the horse version

 

[thick1988]

Yes it will be the non-handicapped William 

Keep in mind as I stated in the post announcing the Poll, that all recommendations past the polls release will be considered for the next volume. Volume 3.

 

[Cozur]

Just popping by to say I'm really looking forward to version 2.

I think it's just because people recognize them. Saddens me a bit  haha

Yes, Warrior X, good suggestion. Will be a possible addition to Volume 3 should the people ask for it.

 

[Antonio97]

And what about Alfonso X "the Wise"?

Have you seen the pictures that I posted in the top of the post?

Yes I have seen those and thank you for submitting the idea. Since it comes after Post #99 (when the poll was issued) he'll be up for election in Volume 3. 

 

[thick1988]

Poll seems to be slowing down. I'll probably end it here a few days early and start working on it as well as figure out who makes it on Volume 2.

EDIT

There were a lot of 8's and 9's, too many to get 15 solid choices. So I picked off the top players and added them into Volume 2, and cut off the ones with low votes(they'll be up for re-election next time). Now I just need 8 from the remaining pool. Cast your vote!

 

[matmohair1]

Alonso de Guzmán (1256–1309) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alonso_P%C3%A9rez_de_Guzm%C3%A1n

& founder of the line from which the dukes of Medina Sidonia descend.

Good suggestion, I've added him to the queue.

I will try to make the helmet for him like you have on the left side of your signature (figure 83a). Something tells me you are fond of it and I owe you for all the pictures
