Thanks. I need to make the scabbard and then I'll do a release in a few months
Could you make some spangenhelms ??

Maybe. Any examples?
I can only think of the very basic ones, assembled steel plate, with some leather covering and some ear protections, if you see what I am talking. as you probably know spangenhelms were the typical helmets of the dark age, so they are a must have for your pack 
Find some art and pictures and I will consider them. Yes, they are a must have though.Sayd Ûthman said:I can only think of the very basic ones, assembled steel plate, with some leather covering and some ear protections, if you see what I am talking. as you probably know spangenhelms were the typical helmets of the dark age, so they are a must have for your pack
Spangenhelms. I hope it helps.
Also a dscription from Wikipedia: Spangen refers to the metal strips that form the framework for the helmet and could be translated as braces, and -helm simply means helmet. The strips connect three to six steel or bronze plates. The frame takes a conical design that curves with the shape of the head and culminates in a point. The front of the helmet may include a nose protector (a nasal).

Hmm, yea I made one similar to those. I can research some spangenhelms from that era. I might retexture this one as well as make a new one.
The reason I asked is that Spangenhelms can vary from 5-11th century.
Yeah, there were many variations(plumed, bronze, with gloden layer, leather and plated, with neckguard or without et cetera; it depends on the timeframe or the money that had been paid for the helmet). But the basic design is the one you made. So with a little retexturing or Idk, some changed features, such as plumes or neckguards, you can come up with a variety of different spangenhelms.
Yeah that's for sure, the good thing with those kind of helmets is that you can make a lot of different ones, with the same base, just change the neckguard texture to leather, and add leather in the top part of the helmet, or model a plume on it, there are a lot of possibilities.
Update .130 for Dark Ages mod up. Nexus download on first page.
I'll eventually make one, you can be sure of that, after axes possibly.
