Making of Byzantine helmet

Byzantine Empire covers the big period in history from the Late Antiquity till the Middle Ages: 395-1453 c. Thanks to The Migration Period the Early Middle Ages’ armor included different styles and types. The most common type of helmet of that time was a helm composed of segments.
This Byzantine style helmet is made from the four quarters connected by the four steel bands and wide ring. Steel nasal element and vertical steel bands are decorated with the brass. There are brass squares all along the wide steel ring. Steel rosette on the top of the helmet is riveted to all elements of the skull. The red bristle decor could symbolize the flame. But evidently it gives a fine and exquisite look to this helmet.

I know their are gonna be people out their complaining that you used a plasma cutter to cut the metal parts out, but come on for the price and the functionality of these products combined with the work going into it, it’s good. Also can you do video going through all of your ladder gambeson and other padded armours would be really cool.

Very nice but I think they used to be on piece or two riveted pieces, not so many
