Qing Dynasty Armour

QING DYNASTY ARMOR




For contrast to my prior post here's a reconstruction using antique armour on models of what and how #Qing Dynasty Armour looked like. Our high ranking aristocrat a general or prince has quilted over robes and is probably wearing metal lates or a coat of scales under the robes. 
Whoever put this together remembered to insert plumes into the top of the helmet probably having consulted paintings showing military processions or campaigns.
