Hi Eric,

There is a very accurate miniature reconstruction of this armour in the Royal Armouries collection - I've only seen a few front shots of this, but if you write to them they may be able to provide you with photographs.

A few years back they conserved this effigy, and photographed it back and front and sides, and some details of it, with colour photographs. I've seen the pjotos, or some of them published somewhere, but I can't rememeber where.

This is all I got. I took the images at the Royal Armories at Leeds, as Jenn (or Bob?) said it is a miniature reconstruction of the armor.
