New pics might be up tonight!

I highly recommend customchainmail! Quality product, great communication and fast shipping/order processing. One of these days I'll be getting a hauberk from them.

Sevastian

Look good in the picture and a nice price but no size 13.

Sevastian

Swedish, and a bit earlier than what the OP is looking for but the only conical I have is not XXL.

Sevastian

I'm working on an occular helmet at the moment. 28 inch inner diameter 12 gauge stainless dome. What is your budget?

Sevastian

Sevastian

Rivetsonline may have what you're looking for.

Sevastian

It looks like you are off to a great start with your kit. Chances are, it's first version will be the get-you-on-the-field kit and evolve from there. I'm no expert on Japanese armor but from what I've seen on this forum the kits are hyper detailed and usually are built up over time. Good luck and ke...

I hope to be posting more pics later

Die, spammer!

Sevastian

This sounds like way too much fun. Maybe someday.

Sevastian

Congratulations!

Sevastian

Perhaps Draven?

Tax Return Bump!

Sevastian

Gorgeous work!

Sevastian

Very, very nicely done! I need to start playing around with this technique.

Warrior says the wind. Chieftain, says the rain.

Sevastian

Thank you, Murnig. I felt a bit cheeky asking that price but several of my friends chastised me greatly and reminded me to charge for my time.

Sevastian

Changed the listing title as there seems to be some interest. I may be open to trading in part for a B2 shear in good shape but be aware of shipping costs to and from Alaska. PM me with any questions. I may be posting some shots of me wearing this helmet with my current kit if I can talk my Wife int...

Sevastian

Apologies. His work is what I'm most familiar with. Such a helmet, like the armor is often bespoke. Perhaps someone else can chime in? If all else fails, it never hurts to ask, yes?

Sevastian

Clang for the helmet would be my first choice.

Sevastian

Thanks, brother! If memory serves, it looked damn spiffy waaay up there on your noggin. I joke, your current helmet is very nice.

Sevastian

Thank you, accdntprone! I'm really loving dark age helmets! I hope to crank out some Norman and Rus conicals soon. I'm looking into making my own pressblech, too.

Sevastian

Best of luck in recovering this. I hate thieves.

Sevastian

Thank you! If I weren't already working on it's brother, I might have considered making a new persona to fit it.

P.S. The lower bar grill attachments are raven heads. If I find close up pics, I'll post them.

Sevastian

A couple pics of the original.

For sale. SCA list legal helmet. 14 gauge blackened stainless throughout with Raymond's Quiet Press brasses and 1/4" mild roundstock grill work which passes the one inch dowel test. 29 inch inner circumference with wedge riveted mild chainmail drape. This was a lot of work and I'm happy with how it ...

Sevastian

This has sold! Please close thread and thanks to all!

Sevastian

Another time then, perhaps Captaincy? Heal up in the mean time!

Sevastian

Windrose may have one such. Icefalcon as well. Pitbull or Mad Matt could have one or make you one.

Sevastian

Early weekend bump. I'll be in Winter's Gate for Coronet this weekend but I will be checking in here.

Sevastian

I thought it was a good piece.

/\This. The fingers I ordered will require a minimum of finish work.

Sevastian

If you use chicago screws for ease of removal, I advise using some locktite. Check them regardless after every practice as they tend to loosen easily.

Sevastian

I would use the thin strip of leather sewn ti the aventail and riveted to the slats method.
