Create a detailed illustration of an armored English knight from the late 14th to early 15th century, depicted in full battle regalia. • Headgear: The knight wears a full visor bascinet helmet, with an arming cap underneath, and a chain mail coif with padded lining visible around the neck. • Torso: Underneath the armor, a thick gambeson and a long-sleeve mail hauberk are visible. Over this is a black brigandine (riveted plate armor over cloth). The arms are protected by metal vambraces (forearms), rerebraces (upper arms), and pauldrons (shoulder plates). Hands are covered with articulated metal gauntlets. • Clothing over armor: A jupon (tabard-like garment) drapes over the armor, styled after Thomas de Beauchamp, 12th Earl of Warwick. It features a chequered pattern of gold and azure (blue) and prominently displays the badge — a bear holding a ragged staff (a broken tree branch). • Leg armor: The legs are covered with mail chausses (mail leggings), metal cuisses (thigh guards), poleyns (knee guards), greaves (shin guards), and sabatons (armored footwear). • Weapons and Shield: The knight holds a long poleaxe in one hand. He also carries a war hammer and a heater shield, which is black with a red per chevron design and a boar emblem positioned on the upper left corner of the shield. A rondel dagger is sheathed at his side. • Pose and Setting: The knight stands ready in a medieval military camp setting, with subtle hints of tents and banners in the background.
