It's a 7 /10, the shape and parts are mostly there but its not based on anything so it lacks the details for an authenticate impression of a set era.
Take the breastplate it looks to be a bit too long and too flat, it has massive arm cut outs, it lacks some details like a stop rib or lance rest.
The sabatons have to few lames and lack authentic shaping, its the same's true with the tassets.
But its not dreadfull its just armour not made with era focused details, great for LARP an SCA use.
