Hello, I need information how to make this helmet, most of all I need patterns (my head 60 cm + helmet lining), I am not sure I will be able to make them myself. I want to use it in tournaments. It will be the first such kind of helmet, that's why I am asking for help.

Well it depends on what sort of metal working equipment and skills you have. But that doesn't look like it would be too hard to make. One place to look for patterns and get some advice is http://www.armourarchive.org/ possible pattern http://www.armourarchive.org/patterns/sinric_...lm_sinric/ hope this helps some

There's a book called Techniques of Medieval Armor Reproduction, by Brian Price, which has the pattern in it. Hope this helps.[/u]

Hi Igor,

This helm goes over a bascinet, so the size would depend on how authentic you want to be?

Hello Igor,

With respect, I think that this is really the wrong forum to ask this sort of question on. I would personally suggest that you have a look here :

http://www.armourarchive.org/patterns/

They have all sorts of patterns there that may well suit what you are trying to make. The forum is also more armour orientated, with a special emphasis on making it, so there are many people there who will be able to help you in your search Happy

Regards,

Russ
