Nicely executed but IMO very tacky looking.

Well... I think this kind of brasswork looks a lot better on earlier style helmets.

Still, thought it was fairly unique.

Yeah it does look better on earlier styles.

Like I said though it is very nicely executed. The helmet itself has a nice shape and the work is all very clean. It's just too busy.
