Adding cloth to the armor

Now its time for a choice,  Cloth or paint.    Cloth? on armor?    ok it sounds strange, Cloth can be used over the entire armor on only on the pieces that you wish to use.  Cloth is a easy way to replicate the ink patterning the Japanese used decorate the leather on armor in antiquity. 

 

Cut the cloth to about the correct size and glue it to the front of the armor.

Note!

Leave a small amount of slack to allow some stretching of the fabric as the glue dries.
