Good pics tomorrow. I made a change to it after Dave went home that made it pop a bit more, the face plate shows up a lot better. I have 6 or seven helmets waiting to get put up tomorrow, so I know where I'll be working. :lol:

The eyes on that almost look like a Corinthian, very cool and classic looking helm.

I use the "penguin" approach to new helmet concealment: "smile and wave boys, smile and wave..."

Well get the thing on your site so those of us who are standing around waiting for something like that can see if we can keep it from making it to Estrella.

Nice work.

Take care and be well,

Site update is in progress, but here's a better shot of the helmet in its final form.

I saw this in the shop the other day as good as it looks in the pictures they don't do it justice

I got this one and 6 others listed yesterday.

It work is very nice. But with an original has a vague resemblance. I have pictures of original helmet if it interestingly you

I want, I want, I want. BUT we are barely going to make it to the war. However, my wife said that if I make enough money playing poker, then I can get it (after we pay off the student loans first!).

C-ya all at Estrella! :wink:

Velund,

I have some pictures of it, more are always good. It isn't meant to be a replica, but a helmet for sca sports fighting that has a basis in the original and a certain "hot rod" sensibility.

Tristan, it's too cool for you...

Velund,

Thanks for the pics, definitely some details we couldn't see in the versions we had. Makes me want to do it again...

We've been at this a while, they don't pass a 1" dowel, so it must just be you. :lol:
