Sugarloaf dating, and representations thereof

Was looking through old threads (like this one http://forums.armourarchive.org/phpBB2/ ... hp?t=71881) and was stumped trying to find later representations of sugarloafs. Lutrell and Romance of Alexander seem to show up as the most cited. I am wondering if folks know of any other artwork or effigies (english preferred) that run later than 1340. 1350-1360 would be bestest, but I have not much hope.

What I am trying to see, is if there is any overlap in globose styled covered body armour with sugarloaf helmets. I know that a Pembridge style great helm would be far more common, just trying to sort out other options.

I think you're going to be out of luck on this one.
