Hey Jan, here are a few. You have a some great work on Deviantart. For what my opinion is worth- that may not be much on this topic- I think this is simply the high collared, wide shoulder-flapped armor, made of various base materials, that will be seen on the steppes from the Ukraine to Korea until the modern era. The one major difference is Pteryges instead of large overlapping panels covering the lower edge. The first image is a quilted version from the Medieval steppes.

Thanks! I certainly thought of such a quilted armour.
Interesting how some of the depictions show sleeves and some show more of a sleeveless vest.

By the way, Duncan, if you missed it I found a new photo of the Achaemenid relief in Kurdistan which C.T. Edmonds described in 1934. Its linked from here.
