Armor of the Divine Triad : lamellar armor
Quote:First proposal for actually doing the armour, compatible with carnuntum plates.

[spoiler][Image: projet.jpg][/spoiler]

So, in the left, my personal idea for the shoulders :

- brass plates, some are tinned, others not.
- around the shoulders, leather
- each scale is attached with a brass wire, like the scales from Carnuntum

My main idea here is to insert a layer of leather or linen between the rows.

I tried to schematize the idea.

What do you think of it? Could it be a real armour from I century AD?

I don't know a better way to put all of the pieces of the puzzle together to make this as an armor of a regular legionary.

Yeah, neat drawing! I wonder how such a ring pull device is supposed to be mounted onto the shoulder. If it's mounted on a single plate I don't know if that puts too much stress on it. Any ideas :?
