Brian, I see. And yes, as everyone else has already stated - simply fantastic work! Thank you for sharing with us.
I think the method you've used for the ptyruges is definitely plausible, given what we see depicted and know of Roman textile and leather usage. I'm assuming then that Doug did not use a separate "subarmalis" or arming doublet but a belt to hold up the lower layer of ptyruges hanging below?
