Allright, the plates are about as done as they will ever be. I may have to fine tune the basic shape just a little once everything is pieced together and worn.

Here it is, droopy black paint and all! The side plates are done too.

The next step is strapping it together, and fitting it. I'll add more to the spine after it is wearable.

Worked a few more hours on the set on Saturday. Everything has been joined together now. Seems to fit good and does not hinder movement at all.

Had to order some more buckles, as I prefer smaller buckles on these sides.

Looks like I may have a tiny bit of bending to do on either the breastplate or the sideplates. Hard to tell until it all gets strapped together.

Getting some more ideas on the details on it here and there. Will not sacrifice mobility for coolness.

Will bring it today.

The buckles came in yesterday!
I'll attach the buckles on Friday, which will make the bone-armour useable!
If there is still motivation, I'll start working on the rest of the spine and the kidney/belly plates.
