How to get armor blueprints?

[Oceansize]

I've killed a few tribesmen but none of them were wearing armor; I had assumed this was how we got armor blueprints. I'm on Day 68 in survival mode, my crafting skill is 35/100, and I still don't have any armor blueprints. Anybody got any guesses why? TIA

you experiment and craft i dont actually know how you actually get the armour blueprints to appear on your crafting screen prior to crafting

but if you craft the armour the blueprint automatically stays in your notebook for the rest of the game

Agree so far I have never found any BP for armor just use the crafting table try different things.
Its more complicated to get the metal armor as you need to mold first from an original. Here's the recipes on Wiki

Just gotta craft it yourself, doesn't take blueprints. A banana leaf two ropes and 3 of whatever. A lot of things you just have to figure out or wiki.

it needs an armour mold same as all the other metal items right?

The armour mold needs a mold, ore and another armour. Last time I used bone.

I don't think you'll ever get armour blueprints. You won't get the Aztec sword blueprint either. I reached 100 in crafting once, and I did't get them. Put a banana leaf and two ropes on the crafting table and start adding random stuff.
