Leather shield armour - Part 2

Firstly - apologies. It appears I am a liar!

I made a 14th/15thC proper planked poplar heater shield and covered it with an original recipe leather/iron/glass armour system and then promised I would come back and shoot it next time. I thought of a few more things, wanted to change it and so had to come back for a second time with no shooting; hence I am a liar. However I did add a section of covering without the iron/glass layer for comparison and I did make a section of 'black gambeson' (maybe), for further tests.

Next time there will be shooting - I promise.
