Yup, that's the one I have on order. Of course, as always, this is a bit of an experiment. I might get it and then hate it. And I totally spaced on the fact that Sir Brian's old one might be the same thing.

I ended up canceling my order for the helm (I ordered some other things that they'll still send me though). I've always wanted a good sugarloaf, but I'm also having a hard time fitting it in with my kits. I have a wonderful great helm already, and I really need to pick a good bascinet or something for the 14th C kit. The sugarloaf isn't fitting in cleanly. :-\
Das Bill:
I'm kind of bummed you cancelled the order, because I was thinking about that helmet and would have wanted to see yours up close. :) As I told you last night in class, I've wanted to do a 14th c. transitional harness for some time, and seeing yours has spurred me on even more, particularly because my 15th century one is almost semi-complete. (I say "semi" because even when it's done, we all know that a kit is never *really* done. ;) )
Sir Edward:
It's always possible I'll go for it again at some point, but for now I wanted to take more time to think on what I really want, rather than shotgunning orders out. :)
Sir Brian:
Well I have this helm from Armstreet. I still have it as I didn't really pursue the sale of it. I can
Try and remove my jury-rigged method of keeping the visor up and bring it with me Sunday as well.
I think I was asking $100 last year so I’ll let it go for $75. Mine has a liner I made for it.

Say what? Since when do we in this hobby actually think about our purchases before we buy, buy, BUY! ;)
Actually, that's exactly why I haven't started on my 14th century harness yet. I'm still planning it out. Maybe I should start a thread on it. :)
