And then...
I'll post again when the yoke is scaled.
Worth saying that I fought in it for hours, took some heavy blows, and some scales got deformed but were easily repaired. It works. it also got wet and dried out, and I sweated it into shape. Fits like a glove. I feel that the scales in the center chest are spaced badly and I will eventually splurge on a hide of tawed alum buff for the pturges, which I'll re-do entirely on the inside--Giannis was right about those. But the out abdominal curve works, and the fit... well,decide for yourselves!
