Yea, it's a long, monotonous process, but you can obtain dragon scale/bone armor within a few hours from leaving Helgen if you know how the game mechanics work.
It's rather pointless, though. Powerleveling like that means your Smithing skill gets your characer to level 20, so you're now fighting level 20 enemies when your combat skills are truly level 1. Also, the game caps the armor rating at a fairly low number (something in the mid-500s, I believe), so there's no ROI when using legendary dragon armor.
