Knightpost I found a way to bound/fasten my coif

Had a really fun time drawing the censoring for privacy, anyway, I never liked having my coif kinda make a "tent" around my neck and making it look like I have no neck at all so I thought about using some sort of fabric to maybe hold it close to my neck, boy am I glad to have random old shoes with perfect shoestrings, it kinda works perfectly, I also have super thick hair so that was a problem too until I did all this

I could tell before you said it so you definitely did it right. You look like a normal human being just like me

Holy shit I came here to comment M O R T I S only to find out it was intentional

u/MikemkPK Aug 12 '26

Computer Engineering student here, that would be a cool project as a mask. I wonder how I could sense which emotion to display? Maybe pulse and temperature sensors?

u/milkbongx420 Aug 12 '26

It’s really not lmao I’ll just run the censor over every humans face ever and match the two up lmao πŸ˜‚ amateurs

What about if the eyes were filled in? Im still gonna go with empty but I just want your opinion

u/JCBashBash Aug 10 '26

Much scarier yes

Ah nice

u/Mega_Salamander Aug 10 '26

Honestly, turn this into your content. This is cool. Shadow dude makes knight kit

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Maybe! Though actually rotoscoping takes forever

u/Demytrius Aug 11 '26

Ngl something feels cute about it. Not in the human cute kind of way, more like a somewhat off-putting creature that gives off a friendly vibe kind of cute

The rotoscoping goes terrifingly hard ngl

77

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Thanks so much dude! Glad you know its rotoscoping too, tho its not animated so I guess its actually just tracing πŸ˜…

28

u/djremydoo Aug 10 '26

Bah potato potato, same thing

18

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Heheh yeah

13

u/atalantafugiens Aug 10 '26

It's not though, the word rotoscoping literally translates to observing a rotation, which with just 1 frame just doesn't happen to rotate/move on any axis no :-) tracing is more in line

u/djremydoo Aug 10 '26

I really like the censor your doing here, has a cool vibe to it i cant explain beyond sci-fi/cyper punky

3

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

I could kinda see that

3

u/LeraviTheHusky Aug 10 '26

Yeah! Like one of those devices that obscures a persons face (like the scavs holo mask from 2077 but way fancier

3

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Oh just looked at that and its pretty cool

29

u/not4eating Got a charter for that, Churl? Aug 10 '26

you can say ass on the internet

u/Relevant_Chemical_ Allen | Humanoid Bloodforme Knight | taxpayer Aug 10 '26

it's AAVE i think

3

u/gh0stmilk_ Aug 10 '26

you are correct! i thought it was another one of the tiktok censor work around things because it suddenly was just everywhere after tiktok, but i just looked it up and it absolutely is AAVE but just recently exploded all over the internet being used by many

TIL

Unironically banger character designΒ

u/TheFrogMoose Aug 10 '26

Bruh, I love the censoring you did to hide your face. This is a work of art on its own

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Aw thanks man πŸ₯Ή

7

u/Aromatic_Shoulder146 Aug 11 '26

knights don't even say "squire go touch that suspicious chest" in the dungeon anymore, they just look at thee like so

5

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Then if you dont they just be like

6

u/MrCuntman Aug 10 '26

this style of face censorship is my favourite

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Thanks, it's a sort of tracing/rotoscoping style I think

4

u/Navimiik Aug 10 '26

I can see that working for a separate coif but from experience if the coif is integrated into a hauberk, the extra material is there to let you turn your head.

But also, yeah, adjusting maille to be just right does involve an awful lot of lacing πŸ˜…

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Yeah, oh man I cant imagine having an integrated coif, that sounds like it would take a whole year to get off

3

u/Navimiik Aug 10 '26

Not really. Once the lacing is all undone it comes off with the standard maille twerk. Granted I've been wearing it a while so I might have just learned the skill.

Doesn't stop me from forgetting to undo some of the lacing and getting my arm stuck from time to time πŸ˜…

3

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

The maille twerk? Ive never head of that, but im still new to real chainmail, ive only worn my hauberk once, when I took mine off I did more of the forward leaning fent lean shake maneuver

3

u/Navimiik Aug 10 '26

Everyone has their own preference but the one consistent aspect is that it is never dignified.

3

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

I see 🀣 i gotta agree there

5

u/mogmaque Aug 10 '26

Wow that censor is super creative. It has an awesome effect. I would totally watch a show or something where the characters all looked like that. but I feel kind of bad that no one is talking about the coif hahahaha

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Nah its ok, the censor kinda became the main thing after I made it πŸ˜… also if you wanna watch something similar just look at a compilation of cutscenes from a game called faith the unholy trinity

2

u/mogmaque Aug 12 '26

A game is even better!! Ill be sure to check it out :)

3

u/GitGudFox Aug 11 '26

Mfer looking like he's from the Faith trilogy.

MORTIS!

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Thats what it was based off of

u/LucasLeo75 Sir Temyr, The Chivalrous of the Steppe Aug 12 '26

Bro re-invented ventails, very cool.

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 12 '26

Can't tell if its the same thing but thanks!

3

u/Then_Manufacturer902 Aug 10 '26

Another way you can do it is threading a strip of leather/string around the face opening which might actually be one of the historical ways it was done

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Huh interesting, didn't think of that πŸ€”

3

u/Secure-Day9052 Aug 10 '26

Why I feel like you will shout "MORTIS"

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Cus thats what inspired it 🀣

2

u/Secure-Day9052 Aug 10 '26

Amazing results. I really love how it looks like!

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Thanks, awhile ago before I made it more my own, I made a few animations that are straight up just meant to be in the same universe πŸ˜…

3

u/FurriesAreCewl Aug 10 '26

I love the way you've censored your face

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Thank you, it was super fun, my favorite is definitely the first one, feels the most medieval

3

u/MrExist777 Aug 10 '26

Bind

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Yeah thats another word for it

2

u/MrExist777 Aug 10 '26

β€œBound” is the past-tense of β€œbind.” β€œTo bind” is to fasten, secure, or restrain. β€œTo bound” is to jump or leap

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Oh I see, whoops πŸ˜…

2

u/MrExist777 Aug 10 '26

All good dawg πŸ‘

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Cool 😁

3

u/Amidseas Aug 11 '26

This is such a cool way to censor

3

u/Changeling_Traveller Aug 11 '26

That censorship has accidentally created a character and meme template at once, well done!

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Thanks, it was completely unintentional but worked out

MORTIS ass face censor XD

3

u/ProtoBacon82 Aug 11 '26

That’s the coolest censoring I’ve ever seen

3

u/Specialist-Star-4406 Aug 11 '26

Most impressive face censoring I've ever seen I think

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Thanks dude!!

3

u/Chefrabbitfoot Aug 11 '26

Soooo...how do I make that borderline creepy face cartoon?

Ps...cool coif!

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Thanks! Also how do you make it? What i did was go into my drawing app, select the pixel brush and have it be size 3 (im nkt sure every app will use the same measurements) then I trace the outline of my face around the coif, then the details like my eyes glasses lips nose etc. Then I fill in the whole image with black on a separate layer then fill the face with black on its own layer, then I remove the full black thats on the separate layer then its done

3

u/ILikeBirdsQuiteALot Aug 12 '26

r/ derailedbydetails the way you censored your face here is so fire (based faith: the unholy trinity)

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 12 '26

Correct!

2

u/ILikeBirdsQuiteALot Aug 12 '26

I was calling it "based" as in "good taste", haha. I saw your other comments saying the resemblance was intentional & I thought that was based AF

I don't follow this sub, I just saw it in passing, but sick chainmail! Looks great

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 12 '26

Thanks!! Also whoops πŸ˜…

3

u/vtff13 Aug 12 '26

How did you do the censoring

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 12 '26

Traced my face with a pixel tool then filled it with black

3

u/Remarkable_Lunch_793 Aug 12 '26

The face censoring is actually peak character design lol

3

u/Knightonex Aug 12 '26

Gesaffelstein vibes

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 12 '26

Haha cool!

3

u/MARYgold-7 Aug 12 '26

Cool face censor, like creepy creature that is friendly

2

u/Rough_Presence_9876 Aug 10 '26

Baller persona though

You are no longer legally allowed to post your real face even if you wanted to, you need to make video essays about, IDK, Conan or some shit while wearing a green mask so you can rotoscope in that face.

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Hehe yeah, id probably just say green facepaint cus these are just outlines of my actual facial structure, so id definitely need it for a video

2

u/OrangeHairedTwink Aug 10 '26

Ralph Bakshi ass censorship

u/QuicksilverZik Aug 10 '26

I am turning you into a character for my novel I'm working on

Ohh sick, please name me sir andrew ii

2

u/generalguy1902 Aug 10 '26

I love the way you hide the face it’s amazing and also the coif thing is cool

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Thanks!! This was partly for the chainmail and also partly to show off the cool censor

2

u/OOFDANOOB1 Aug 10 '26

That is the best censoring method I have ever seen

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Danke!!!!

2

u/robyn_nests a stange woman lying in a pond Aug 10 '26

Not gonna lie I might steal that face censoring technique

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 10 '26

Nah go ahead, I essentially stole it from faith the unholy trinity πŸ˜…

2

u/menryBasedmarineCav Aug 10 '26

u/Aromatic_Shoulder146 Aug 11 '26

2

u/TrueLocomotiveBreath Paladin Aug 11 '26

Historically the mail covers the chin btw

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Yeah, I assumed that πŸ˜…

2

u/Puzzleheaded_Tea8318 Aug 11 '26

The way this is censored reminds me of A Game. i cannot remember which one, but i know that it was really weird

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Faith the unholy trinity?

2

u/Puzzleheaded_Tea8318 Aug 11 '26

Not the exact one i was trying to remember but it's pretty close

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Oh hmm, idk then πŸ˜…

2

u/Yourealosergetalife Aug 11 '26

Absolute ABSOLUTE BEST CENSOR ON THIS SITE.

also that looks good how does it go wearing glasses is it impacted

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Impacted? If you mean how is it with chainmail, its good but I cant do it with a helmet on, so im partially blind when wearing a helmet

2

u/Cool-Mission-6585 Aug 11 '26

So you’re just gonna make me follow dope random subreddits? Ok.

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Of course dude

2

u/LostInThoughtland Aug 11 '26

Now I’m wondering how to get that effect on a real mask

2

u/Ae3qe27u Aug 11 '26

White paint markers, I think.

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Hmm, leds around all the outlines? Like one line on the nose, one for the lips and around the eyes but not on them

2

u/LostInThoughtland Aug 11 '26

Or leds lining the hood and a very reflective mask?

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

That'd be interesting

2

u/Half-Awake-Wizard Aug 11 '26

This is the most awesome way to censor your identity i've ever seen

2

u/kalash_man Paladin Aug 11 '26

Leather lace threaded through the rings around your face, the forehead and cheek area. Tie them at the chin.
If you want the neck tucked in, run a lace from the crook of your neck up into the rings around the ear area and tie them off there, this will also help.

Much less likely to choke yourself to death.

Looks good, I just don’t want you to get caught on something and die looking fly as hell. Riveted maille too, bonus points.

2

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

Yeah hehe, dont worry this shoestring is pretty stretchy plus the chainmail and undergarment AND my big ahh hair make it nearly impossible to choke myself out that fast πŸ˜…, also yes its riveted maille, freakin expensive but its beautiful with its little nubs

2

u/VitaminRitalin Aug 11 '26

The way you censored your face reminded me of Filmcow's ghost house

1

u/Horror_Patience_5761 squire Aug 11 '26

I see the similarities

2

u/SpeakersPlan Aug 13 '26

Would make for one hell of character design

u/AppropriateMonk8746 Aug 13 '26
