A lot like Groenlandaspis but probably skinnier. Maybe Paleozoo will make one...
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

Awesome! Is there by any chance a diagram of it from above floating around anywhere?

The paper has some overhead diagrams and photos of the fossil, but it's of the disarticulated or semi-articulated elements, not a full-body reconstruction.

There was even some soft tissue impressions preserved, that's very cool!
