I was wondering if anybody could give me an idea or a tutorial of how to create that stacked plated looking armor. For example I wanted to work on a head of one of the Anubis guards from Stargate. I just don't understand how to do that layering effect down the front of the neck. I have attached a reference image so you can see what I am talking about on the front of the neck. Any information on how to do this process would be greatly appreciated.
