Rohan Armor and Soldiers
They tend wear a Viking dark ages type of clothing.
This is just a rough dump... more as we collect data and have time to
study it.

Quotes from
Richard Taylor:
-
[Rohan] "ride
horses, so they
are very much of
the horse culture
and their whole
lives exist around
their ability to
utilize horsecraft
at a high level"
-
"Just a helmet
took a
considerable
amount of design.
In the pursuit of
realism, it was
beaten out of
plate steel, acid
etched into steel,
and had handworked
leather. Then we
finally took
silicon moulds to
replicate to
create the stunt
double version."
-
"It's very much
Norman/Saxon
influenced."
One of the Rohirrim costumes displayed in London came with a round shield. The
shield boss was decorated with two running horses, with their hooves
towards the center of the boss. The Rohirrim spearsman has a cloak just like Dernhelm's, the colour and
texture match that of the picture on the box of the action figure. Also
equally ratty looking at the edges. (JB/Xander)

later mounted on a standard belt by Weta. Thanks to Kai-lin for sharing
her prize. |
