Quote:I agree with Jason,
Greeks were mosr concern of the apearence for the artwork in preference to accurate depiction. Only late hellenistic art becomes more accurate.
So "wrinkled" armorm might have existed in reallity.
Kind regards

And if the wrinkles were on the inside they wouldn't show up in the art anyway.

Besides, by the Hellenistic period, most of the exteriors of these things appear reinforced by plates, scales, all manner of things so those would cover wrinkles too.

How about the quitling method? Wouldn't it produce wrinkles as well?
