First off I want to say that this motif is just absolutely beautiful. (Almost) all of the elements are wonderfully 3D and the textures and overall style are just stunning.
Except for one thing, and that is the dreaded crotch flap. I don't inherently dislike the flaps that are so often put on these chest pieces, but here you have an amazingly crafted motif with all these 3D sculpted elements and then you decided to slap a PAINFULLY 2D flap on it. Why? Wouldn't it be easier to just forgo it instead of tainting something great? Not to mention the added metal plates there don't really make sense, since a gambeson can be seen underneath. I realize the likelihood of this request being seen, let alone acted upon, is very little, but some wishful thinking never hurt anyone: could you please remove the front flap before you release the chapter? It so easily could be one of the best motifs released to date.
