So I managed to trade to get some sintra last year. i wanted to see how hard it is to work with, before my good stuff comes in. well I had a vest made, but it can choke me at times, so I went with something i cna wear without the vest and still provide a good look, and something I can get in and out of pretty quick for my medical issues. I am still waiting on the helmet, but thats been discussed and is good, next though i need gauntlets. im using commercial knee pads for now. Im not tring for approval yet, im trying to see if i can make decent armor. please, let me know your opinions.
1st look

2nd when i realized nothing keeping the plates stuck, even iron on velcro to vest let go after sitting for a day, and the stic stuff let go of the plates. So i though try a romanesque curiass.

formed

fitted

finished for now

note for anyone curious 3mm Sintra you can use 3/16 double post "chicago" screws with a washer. im using 3/16x3/4 washers. For 2 pieces of 3mm or 6mm use 1/4 double post "chicago" screws with no need for washer.
