For my mod, I am going to need (eventually) a knight that looks like the one pictured below. (Minus, of course, the eyeball monster).

This was a concept drawing that my girlfriend did, based on original designs by me.
The shield (only half seen) is just a basic roundshield, Norse-ish in design, about the same size as a Greek aspis.
The helmet is similar the one shown below, but does not have the nose piece down the front. Also, it sports two of the leaf emblems on the sides, sticking up. (Think the gull-wings on Gondorian helms)

The unit should be predominately civ-colored, with the platebody colored. The chainmail should be silver, as should the leaf emblems on the unit. And, if possible on the emblems, slightly luminous. The units wears a short plate-skirt as well as plate-legs, both of which should be civ-colored as well. The rest should be the usual color of whatever it is.
I would also love to have a version of that as an archer. The emblem on his shoulder is also on the chest plate, only larger, and, if this unit is made, must feature prominently (again, think "White Tree" of Gondor in LOTR). The archer, would, of course, not have a shield.
Although the entire unit has many Graecian influences, it should look mainly European.
I know that this is a lot of detail for a unit request, but I have a very strong image of what these guys look like.
