I prefer this Paul Reubens:
For some reason I thought posthumous referred to the painter and I was confused 
doing Juche necromancy on all my favorite painters so they can do one last piece 
Imagine being forever known as "the handsome" and you arent even handsome
eye of the beholder shit, bro doesn't even have syphilis! ..and comparing with the heap of other habsburgos..
He doesnt look that handsome. Maybe its a nickname when he was younger ?
Nice armour though
Handsome*
*relative to other Habsburgs
falling buffe w/ such a gran sallet is lowkey a look, very interested in how articulated it could be since it would be difficult to mount to the helmet as you usually would with a buffe.
the general shape of the sallet is maybe a few grains too exaggerated for my taste but it's pretty novel to have that visor shape and mostly neck-based facial protection
