@Bessron Thank you. It’s basically Admiral’s lamellar armour tutorial but dumbed down: first I did the lamellar segments similar to how denelian recently did his scale armour; obviously without rounding them off at the bottom. This is also when you want to add indentations at the bottom of each segment where you later add the threads. In a second session, I added the horizontal strips (it’s important that the individual segments are a lot longer to accommodate the strip at the top) and later the vertical strips at the bottom (pteruges). In a last session (or realistically more than one session because this is tedious work), you would add the individual threads.
So, I did a test sculpt for my future hobgoblin horde:
The basic shape is done. Sculpting was a lot more pleasant this time as I did trousers, shoes and tunic in the correct order. I’m not completely happy with the folds on the trousers though (I think I slightly overdid it here) – I will fix this later.
