Otto, I think my 100% original armor is much nicer.

PS, the stand has some braces to support the weight of the plates, so the weight does not rest on the web straps, that is what you can see holding up the base of each plate.

Hey Pattiewhack,
The Stirnpanzer (front plate) is not easy to find, and to make matters worse, you need to hold it to tell if it is real, there are cast copies on the market that can be found for less than $100 at times, but a real one will that the better part of a grand.

Mike,
What a beautiful display! Just what I have in mind for my set. I've picked up the materials, but haven't finalised the design.
