+ I think this would be lovely |

The trouble is, a single light cut to the shoulder would sever the ribbon, and then everyone could stop fighting and watch the little plates flipping and tumbling down until all the armour was around your ankles. |

... which would, itself, be a beautiful sight. [+] |

Why it's beautiful. And you must know that "teal" is the "hot"
color right now. |

Autobun for supplied illustration. [+] |

That's a honey of an illustration. |

[+] for CAD rendering. Is it intended to just flex, or
also to flip around like a Jacob's Ladder? (one
directional flipping.) If the latter, it seems to be over-
constrained. |
|
| |
The hinged plates are just intended to flex, no flipping (sorry
to disappoint [pocmloc]). By using the Jacob's ladder hinge
you can get large flex angles in both directions using relatively
thick plates, and no (or very little) bevel/chamfer on the
plates to allow them to hinge. |

Kevlar ribbons and you're good to go. |

//Kevlar ribbons// - why not graphene? |

Neither of those materials are bullet proof. |

UHWMPE is a rigid armor. It's used in layered sheets, right?
How flexible can it be made? |
|
| |
I submit that Jacob's Ladder Plot Armor would work
almost as well (i.e. quantum immortality) |
