Teutonic great helm...now with wings?
Sir Douglas:
Thank you, Sir Nathan! Very helpful indeed. What would they have been made out of historically? Leather/wood/etc. like other crests? Something lightweight I would assume.

Ha! Yeah, isn't it funny how that works? There's so much nonsense out there that sometimes it's hard to tell what's real and what isn't. I find that often times fact is wilder than fiction.
Man, how I would love to see the Black Prince's gear up close and in person. Such a wealth of information there. Maybe one day....
I really want to make a crested Teutonic helm, now. :P
SirNathanQ:
You hit the nail on the head, leather and wood are exactly what you (and history) would use.
B. Patricius:
First off,
Douglas, that's a beautiful kit you're sporting. Really nice.
Second,
Sir Ulrich! :o 8)Man bud, you always find a way to spend my money lol where does one find the purchasing icon on that website?

Sir James A:
Pavel is in the Czech Republic. If I remember right he only does money orders. But if you send him an email, he will send you a current prices spreadsheet. You just cross reference the letter/number on the sheet with the item you want.
SirNathanQ:
Or you could make them, which honestly isn't too hard.
