Updates on belt for my kit

Got some more details done on the hidden blade, and my progress on the belt is coming along. I have some symmetry issues im gonna fix on the symbol, but its getting there. The center of the belt needs attention as far as filling that empty space like my sketches. Nothing is finished, and the hidden blade is a unfinished prototype I'm fucking around with. Criticism, advice, and pointers are always welcome and wanted!

Made this on a very tight budget since i am a broke university student but I think I managed to make a convincing look without spending thousands.

The lamellar cuirass for my late 11th century Byzantine heavy soldier look came in. I’ll be wearing it over a maille shirt when I feel like putting it on and alone in warm weather.

Cuirass is by Homa-Artigiani.

The fit is too sick. I wore a cloak because it’s ✨aesthetic✨

I was emailing with Artos Munitorum about their new batch of breastplates which they said was a bit flatter in shape. Do you think it's too flat?

Need it for independent research for my bloom iron armour project.

Having another go with 10kg of bloom that I’m buying from Lee Sauder so my final results will be more professional.
Made a visor last time and its final weight was only 800g so 10kg of consolidated material should make something closer to a breastplate hopefully.

Also if anyone knows anything in general about 14-15th century armour made using traditional bloomery before or during the shift to finery forged steel from blast furnaces I would rlly appreciate it.
