Well, light by Gondorian standards I guess.
I called it "Light" mainly because I dropped the greaves in favour of Faramir-style boots and omitted any chain-maille, as well well as replacing the long six-lamed tassets with smaller one piece ones. An important factor in the design was to eliminate any hanging plates and instead have it all fitted closely to the body as much as possible.
Also, as this is supposed to be a 4th Age harness, I altered the design of the White Tree, basing it on a simplified variation of the White Tree on Arwen's banner, which seems symbolic of the sapling of Nimloth that Aragorn plants.
Maybe I'll do full armour sometime later.
