Visual Journal: Chainmail for the Modern Age

Today I thought about chainmail and clothing. I'm most likely going to place my characters within a medieval setting so chain mail will most likely play a visual role, however I've never drawn it before. I used the character of Eowyn from Lord of the Rings as a reference point.

Follow Tommy 'Zoom''s board Eowyn on Pinterest.

After I'd got a feel for the aesthetic of chain mail I decided that I wanted it to look more modern than that seen in Lord of the Rings so spent some time developing the coverings etc. This has now left me in a bit of a puzzling situation, do I want my story to take place in a medieval sort of setting or a contemporary one? Could both work?
