Romano-Briton helm: part III


I got some more work done on the helm, and although some annoying bits happened (namely, replacing about five rivets after undue forces stressed them to popping), I did get the skull mostly finished.

Here we go. First picture, I finished riveting the plates in:



Here's the first spangen:



And half-finished:



And completely finished:



Per request, I made the side spangens angled; this is the first one done.



I'm going to finish the other one next time (Monday?) and then I'm going to start on the cheekplates.

Till then,
