Battle Dress Images?

So, my players recently acquired several suits of IISS Walkabout armor (from the article in Megatraveller Journal #1, "Dressed to Kill") and I cast about the Interwebs to find a good artistic representation -- I've been finding it a good practice to produce 3D images of things that come up in the campaign so they have a better handle on them.

I'm finding it difficult to find really good representations of that particular type of suit. From the image in the article, it looks like a more advanced version of the civilian style suits of today, as opposed to the overtly combat-oriented armor usually seen in modern computer games.

Speaking of computer games, I thought of maybe using something from the space games like Dead Space (Advanced Engineer RIG), but few of them have anything that looks at all similar to the one in the article. Anybody have any suggestions?
 
Try searching with google using science fiction space suit - click on images.

Alternatively use the key words advanced space suit.

You'll find quite a lot of useful civilian looking designs that resemble the IISS suit.

The Googles, they do nothing!

I searched Google, and didn't find anything that looked enough like the Walkabout suit for me; most of them are either too sleek or too Space-Mariney. Maybe I just didn't go deep enough into the results. I guess I'll give it another go.

meant as an illustration for Heinlein's Starship Troopers, i guess a major influence on Traveller
 
I always though Marvel's "War Machine" would make a good light (Scout) armor.
