OK, Its been a few days, but I got it put together for our event this weekend past.
Some details need to be worked on after trying it out.
- It needs to be lined, as I`m a trifle chafed at the shoulders
- It needs three closures at the side, not two.
- It needs leather reinforcements at the lacing points
- The breast plate is about an inch to tall, and possible a little wide.
- It needs more decorative work, including the bands.
- I need to arrange the chiton underneath a little more.
All in all, it wears well. I can sit without the pteruges touching the chair, I can hurl a spear with some aplomb as the other picture shows.
