Yes, Anthony
I should have added another layer of Ptergues on the shoulders but I was not sure how they would come out to look at the end.
I think three layers would be too much.
As someone mentioned early in the subject. Wearing this Cuirass all day one looses weight due to sweat. We usually perform in the summer and early months of fall. With very high temperatures. I usually can loose anywheres from 3 to 5 kgs in weight over a weekend. Plus the inside of the cuirass usually turns white from the sweat and when I have to remove it, it actually sticks to my tunic.
As for the Attic helmet, it is a reworked Brass Auxiliary Helmet type B. However, I should have had the visor made less higher. I think that it is too pronounced in height, however, I am delighted with the art work.
As you said, I wonder if this project will ever eventually end. My wife hopes so. I have 5 gladius, 4 helmets, 1 pugio, and etc.
