Many thanks fellows! And thanks to Sir James for suggesting the yellow trim.

And here we go. I ended up going with the yellow trim to add just a little bit of color to it.
It matches the colors of my current secular knight kit's charge, too.  ;D

Sweeetttt!!!!

You're welcome. Also, now that this helmet is done ... see my suggestion regarding multiple helmets and crests. ;)

Hate to break it to you, but I've never been overly susceptible to peer pressure. Your mind tricks won't work on me. ;) It was a fun little project, though. I'll certainly make more in the future.

Not that I can tell. It seems pretty stable and not overly heavy; you just have to be a little more aware of your immediate surroundings and watch where you swing those things.
 I imagine you'd get some wind resistance if you were on horseback at full gallop, but I have neither a horse nor the skill to ride one, so I don't really have to worry about that. I could always stick my head out a car window and see what happens, I suppose. ;)

Nah, the whole point of the helmet is to prevent you losing your head ;)
