    The style of plate on the vambraces is called mountain pattern and is seen in a lot of Japanese art. Very very nice touch.

    I'd be worried about the groin armor flapping around while running, and thus smacking me in the Bits.

    • @Bean_Soup
      @Bean_Soup 2 года назад

      I own one, it doesn't flap nearly as much and it doesn't weigh too much to the point that you get hurt if it did flap you in the groins

    The style of armor on the vambraces is known as 'Moutain pattern' and is Chinese. Entire chest plates were made in aid style. Wiki article for starters => en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_armour

    This is some nifty looking armour! I love how the plates are all linked and slide over each other making it flexible, that is very clever. Maybe you need a samurai helmet to complete the look, although I don't really know what helmets the Samurai wore. Thanks for showing it off!

    • @juliannixon9734
      @juliannixon9734 2 года назад +3

      They wore what is referred to as a Kabuto helmet(although the name itself is just the Japanese word for helmet, its generally referred to as a Kabuto Helmet, in the same way that The Sahara is called the Sahara Desert.)

  • @Felixplays_456
    @Felixplays_456 2 года назад

    Am I wrong or did they overlap the plates sort of backwards so that if they were struck from above with something sharp it would catch and go between the plates instead of being deflected.

    • @CaptainXavier
      @CaptainXavier  2 года назад

      Unless the goal is to catch your opponents blade. Hard to parry an incoming counter attack when you weapon is stuck on your enemy's armor.

      @CaptainXavier  2 года назад

      Depends what you want. If you want an actual functional heavy plate carrier to carry actual plates? Go with Condor. I have a Condor Defender I think. If you just want something cheap and light to carry some Nerf Mags? Something cheap off Amazon.

    Would this fit on someone who’s about 6ft3 280lbs or would it just look goofy and small?

    • @CaptainXavier
      @CaptainXavier  Год назад

      It would probably look a little silly. But it would depend on what your mounted the armor panels too. If you put them on a vest that fits you it should be fine.

  • @jonajo9757
    @jonajo9757 2 года назад

    Just for the lamellar thing, the style isn't nessicary japanese, and actual japanese lamellar pieces were drastically different as they had more holes, and overlapped each other twice when formed into a board. Lamellar typically wasn't attached to a backing, but there are exceptions. For the chainmail statement, I'm unsure how that'll work, but I'm assuming you mean scales linked into a chainmail mesh, but often or not, that'd just be scale. If you meant plates integrated with chainmail, then that won't be lamellar. I'm not sure what to call it, but there are armours that followed a similar construction like karuta armour, moro plate, and such.

    • @CaptainXavier
      @CaptainXavier  2 года назад +3

      Trust me, the chain mail and plate works. I have made it. With metal and leather plates. Many cultures did it. But especially in the middle east. It is a form of lamellar. Lamellar armor was used by most Asian and European cultures for at least 2000 years. There are MANY variations.

  • @gosmbricks9833
    @gosmbricks9833 2 года назад +3

    It would be really cool if you added some sort of hidden foam blade like in assasins creed under a vambrace that can slide out by moving ur arm forward, although I have a feeling you will have a better idea than this, I AM speaking to Captain Xavier after all
