Yeah, but this is fantasy (and hence anything is allowed) Besides I'm hoping

of the 'armour' models I've seen on sale are worse than useless (thin strips
of metal with sharp edges and usualy the abdomen left bare)

sounds fun. Got any photos of the armour you used? I'd be interested in
seeing the real thing
