I will pad the shoulders.
I hope to get back to this project this week I am working on some other stuff as well (wedding video, sporran, maple leaf kilt pleated to the sett...) It all kinda adds up.
I'll have another update with pictures of the skirts/flaps/pockets or whatever the term for them really is, tomorrow.
Good luck.
As far as I can find out, the flaps are called tasses. Going by my medieval armor book, It does appear that the doublets were influenced a little in design by some of the knight armor. They are military in origin, from what I have been told, so that makes sense... I think.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
