Awesome

Will you add a new animation?
Would be nice if the character reached for his left hand rather than his back.

All of this models are so colorful, was that really a thing back then? Or is it on purpose to show off the models or to embellish the battlefields?
You would think that they would paint tissues with pretty basic colors if any, in a way that it standardizes, accelerates and cuts costs on the production process. I think you should only expect this level of customization(that you have been showing) on more elite and expensive equipment.

There might be some inaccuracies and illustrations certainly have more of a subjective and artistic touch but they often refer archeological finds.
I think it's worth checking them out, there are not books that many that dedicate to this time period. And you can always double check.
Just a suggestion. :)

Have you seen the Men at Arms book series from Osprey Publishing?
Lots of illustrations and reliable info.

Looking amazing, but can you model this o.O

Good to know, thanks for the reply.
Please interpret this as critiques to make improvements, after all the mod looks amazing and all credit goes to you.

Yeah in this video it looks better

But still, the chain mail falls short in terms of looks compared to the other amazing models, the fabric just looks perfect.

In that video some chain links seem a little glitched (cut in half or don't join properly), also, maybe the black background behind the links doesn't help with the issue.
Possibly is also that the chain links texture that isn't that great?...

The problem is that look it just looks too flat, i wonder if it's possible to give it a more 3d look, adding the perception of roughness and volume.

This looks better for example.

Maybe trying to model the chain links instead of a texture?
(i have no experience in modeling, not sure if what i said is correct)

But again, for example, this models don't look like the chain links are fully modeled and look very good.

The chain mail doesn't look good, tbh.
Looks like a silver jacket, no links separation, too reflective and surface too smooth.

If you could improve as you progress would be great
