I like it, clean and simple and headed for greatness =D
This style of helm (sculpted face instead of "oh right I can't leave this open"-bars are always way cooler ^^)

I can totally tell that helm doesn't believe in God.
(Sorry, couldn't resist.)

I also like the contrast. What are the rivets? They look really wide to be stock rivets.
Stuff I will trade for: PWM controllers, steel sheet/rod/bar (4130/410/1050/toolsteel), ITC, casting supplies, wood tools, silver, oxpho blue, gun stuff (9luger/357mag/12g/7.62x54R/22LR), hammers, stakes, or pitch me!
