I'm currently planning to make a japanese armour, more specifically either a haramaki gusoku or a odoshi gusoku, and I have (obviously) no idea about how they were sewn together, the measurements of the little scales, and much more, including how they were worn above the clothing. So basically, I need a tutorial, and other websites like easy and such weren't really helpful, regardless if one would consider the good sources for such a niche interest. Is there any possibility out there which could be helpful to me?
Best regards
Haon

I think there are 0 books in English that would focus on specifically on crafting armor. Even in Japanese I am not sure if there are any. You might enjoy looking at the website of late AJ Bryant. I remember I once thought of trying to make one too. I think his site was about the best resource in English back in the day as I didn't know any armor guys back then. sengokudaimyo.com/

Hi Jussi, thank you very much for your response. It seems to be a very long read, but I think this is exactly what I was searching
