A Mountain in Black?
Reader Andrew Tomlinson sends this picture and says, "This is some armour built for SCA Fighting / a production I was involved with titled FOLK LORE. The Armor was equal parts inspired by the high gothic german style and the descriptions of the Mountain, Sir Gregor (and his Dull plain Armor) in your books... I really would just like to know if the armor looks anything like what you would imagine Sir Gregor in."
Well... not really. It is a gorgeous suit of armor, but the Mountain's gear would be plainer, uglier, and heavier. (His enormous strength allows him to wear thicker plate than ordinary men). Something like this might work better for some Targaryen princeling, or perhaps Darkstar of Dorne.
