When you get the chance, please talk about how you engraved the helm. And adding horsehair tails for Rohan style. Drilling for rivets would be helpful.
Can I just say AMAZING VIDEO QUALITY AND EDITING I CANT BELIEVE THIS VIDEO DOES NOT HAVE MANY VIEWS OR LIKES WITH THIS GREAT QUALITY AND EDITING RHIS DESERVES ALOT OF VIEWS AND LIKES BRO
I used to wear whatever was spare in my reenactment group, then i made my own to my specifications. I got a kettle helm pattern and made it in 1.2mm (I think) mild steel. It has a kinda rough finish, but it sits on my head well and doesnt shift around because i made the strapping attach at 4 points instead of 2, which was always a point of annoyance when i borrowed the group kettle helm which had 2 a point strap.
Do you have any recommendations for very thin padding? I ordered a helmet years ago that I have modified and I love, but it was a bit on the small side so I had to rip all the padding out and have only put minimal back in to cover anything stabbing my head.
Do you have any plans to sell that leather H-strap you designed for the Raven helm in your store, or perhaps do a video on how to make and install one? I'd gladly do either.
I’d really love to see the Epic Armory sugarloaf helmet, do you have any of those in your collection? I’d love to buy one but I’m worried I won’t like it.
Awesome informative video! I always asked myself if the visored barbuta would fit with a pair of glasses. I have a medium sized head and I wonder if it would fit. The problem I have is that I cannot wear contact lenses and I don’t want to show my glasses. Do you think about a full face helm that would hide them? Thank you very much from France!
CTK 2611 hi! Honestly it really depends on the size and shape of your head, glasses and helmet, so I can’t really make a recommendation without all that!
How did you darken and engrave bits of the LOTR helmet? I feel like you talked about in in some other video... Also What sort of petina and sealer did you use? (If you don’t mind my asking)
Pike so the engraving is already there, but we use mirror finish silver paint pen to make it really pop. We us Black Magic metal patina to darken the helm.
fellandfair thank you for the information! I found this nice Éomer helmet online and planned on getting it and altering it Your information will help tremendously Thank you!
fellandfair is applying it with things like a sponge or paintbrush fine, or is there something specific you use? Also, on the subject of the patina, is there a specific brand you used? (Also also, do you recommend sealing it with a clear coat or no?)
@@fellandfair Thanks... The reason I asked is that I've seen in some TV and Movies that had Cavalry troops, the use of a Burgonet, and a metal curiass, with a colorful shirt, dark pants and maybe knee high boots...So not having access or knowledge to armor, and who wore what in a particular century, then the question...

Roxanne Victor those are some good details! We may be able to do some of those after we finish the overview series!
Can we see a video on the costumes of the fox and the dragon it would be really cool to see them in full detail!
That may happen, but it would be a huge endeavor. We shall see!
Ok thanks!
I really like this series!! Cant wait to see more. One video suggestion, you guys should do a video on cloaks and how you wear quivers with them.
We will!
Would love to see a video on how to make and install an H harness for a helmet.
We probably won’t get detailed like that until after we have completed the more broad subjects!

i would love maybe something about religous symbols in clothing and just costume in general
or maybe shields
coen185 interesting. Do you mean historically or in fantasy?
fellandfair both
Excellent video, loved everything you said. Keep up the good work sir!
Would it be possible to do a behind the scenes video on making costumes?
For specific how to videos, check out this playlist
The nasal helm with the added face guard, you could as cheek guards to it and chainmail at ghe back aswell
I like your hair and nice topic, I will build a helmet on my own. Pls do more
Thanks! Will do!

dagniranum a thin arming cap may help. You can also get batting from a fabric store and cut pieces to fit.
Do you have any plans to sell that leather H-strap you designed for the Raven helm in your store, or perhaps do a video on how to make and install one? I'd gladly do either.
Unfortunately we don’t sell the strap. Basically what I did was buy a modern one, cut it up to make a pattern and then made it out of leather.
@@fellandfair I shall endeavor to do the same, then. Thank you!

I was considering getting that one myself
What do u think of the 12th through 14th century great helmet in particular templar Knight vs the sugar loaf
Do you typically just glue the lining/padding in?
Kim Walker post padding sets come with Velcro pads that have sticky one one side to attach to the helmet.

Someone should make a Forhonor movie with that visored barbuta helm
if a person were to use a Burgonet Helmet, metal cuirass, and an arming jacket, what century are you looking at?
Cameron Garcia 16th C.
