The Duelists: Unarmed & Exposed


'En Garde.'


En guard (on your guard) signals to each of the participants to take their defensive position before the duel begins. You can rest easy however, with this set of Duelists as the only thing their swords will be penetrating... are your visual senses. FH readers have spent time with one of our Duelists before, actor Michael Moody who we spent both a January snow day with, as well as a red hot Valentines. While putting together the Valentine piece, Michael mentioned The Duelists, and their 2018 calendar, and after checking out some of the images, I thought it deserved a bit more attention!


I know it's almost March, but there's still 10 months left in 2018 to enjoy Michael, and his fellow duelist Randal Scott. The Duelist sperform at renaissance festivals, corporate events, educational shows and film and TV projects. (Deadliest Warrior, Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, Stolen, Underemployed) The Calendar came about when Michael and Randal were discussing their respective career paths and when they realized it was something no on the Renaissance Faire circuit had ever tried.


The calendar is a 12 month dazzling display of comedy and sword fighting brilliance, and something I am sure others will looking to copy. Now, in addition to their awesome hoodies and camisoles, the Duelists calendar, now in it's second year, has been added to the reservoir available for sale. The calendar, photographed by Diane M. Ellenberger is usually sold directly by Michael and Randal at their personal appearances, but you can also contact them on The Duelists Facebook page (HERE:) to get a copy of your own!
