The second one, the Churberg 14, is great for the knightly types, 1370ish I believe. Justin Stockbridge wears a version. Lovely type of harness.

First on is a stylized sports version of the second one, with a klappsvisor helm.

With the coat of plates you wear maille underneath. Any limb armour would be either basic plate one top of the maille, or for the Germanies you could go with splinted rebrace (upper arms), solid cop on the elbow, and splinted vambrace on the for arm. This style was very specific to the Germanies though it was use mid century for a short time in other countries.

Overall the last one is reasonably correct for a man-at-arms for about 1350-1390.
