Glove gauntlet WIP

ok guys so i was asked if i could make a glove/gauntlet to go with the AC vambrace i have... well ive never made a gauntlet so this is my first attempt.
first i have to thank for his help his advice and just being a great guy with my newbie questions every now and then.

the leather is pretty thin, pretty pliable as well. the rivets are not set at this time just in there so i can see how it works. each finger has gotten better as ive moved on...
few down sides the middle panel on the back of the hand doesnt move when i close my fist so only the top knuckle does... i think placing the hand strap up to the top of that piece would fix that problem.
i kinda wet molded them with just the end of one of my edging tools to get the knuckles. and i just pinched it to get the ridges.
i think im going to use a snap for the bottom like how i did the barbers glove i made a while back.
i have an issue with the knuckles on the middle digit since there is a larger gap in those pieces. right at the knuckle. a small piece of leather over would fix it but would then cause issues with thickness of the fingers...
i may try o boil this piece as was proper of armor just so that i can keep the fingers ridged.... from what i hear though... i will loose size... that would be a problem...
im just going to keep going with this and finish it completely... then make adjustments from there.
