I know we've recently discussed the proper rendering of Cap's uniform... in regards to how often these days it's depicted as plate armour vs chain mail.

I think this is the first time I have ever seen Cap's uniform rendered as it is supposed to (at least as I remember the premise from back in the day) in hyper detail... as fabric stretched over chain mail.
I would imagine it was the color artist who would have properly rendered that look given the fact that blacks laid down by Penciller/inker seem to harken back to the old days where the chain mail under fabric was suggested by those little squiggles.
