Extant Greenwich armour
In the spirit of the thread of
Milanese armours, I have made this one, though English armour doesn't have quite the same following. At least a few here should be interested. I just want you to know I will be continually updating this thread so I am literally working on it right now. Please add anything that I have left out.
All of the following are in the Royal Armouries:
Tonlet armour of Henry VIII, c. 1520

Armour of Henry VIII, c. 1540

Another armour of Henry VIII, which seems to not be on public display:
