im wanting to make a legionnaire costume like the title says, from the 2011 movie The Eagle, i pretty much know where to get everything but the armor (segmentata), i'm pretty handy with leather as I've worked with it for about 3 years now, i just dont know how to make a segmentata out of leather, the ones in The Eagle aren't historically accurate but thats no biggie, BASICALLY can anybody make patterns for me or help me find some, i know there are some online but none match that of The Eagle

MuseumReplicas has a replica of the segmentata but i can make it for cheaper, and I've heard they aren't that good quality
 
Look at some books on Roman armor. There are tons of photos and I've seen some who build them online from steel but they could easily be translated into a leather build.
