Hi,
I recently made a Lorica Squamata without a round collar. Mine is for gladiatorial use, so not based on and specific design. The images which appear to show gladiators in Squamata are very poor in detail, so it is hard to base a design on them.
I have opted for a basic tubular torso. You will need to think about how the two sides meet when they reach the shoulders, as you will have an unprotected area. I used leather to fill the void.
I will try and attach an image.
Please excuse the wrong subarmilis and that my scales need adjusting slightly to fill the gaps on the chest and shoulders.
