To high medieval to my taste.
I dont mind rejection from you Taro or others on these following suggestions. Looked around and just thought of theis stuff, perhaps for Swan's or to something else in the future, if not here or for Taro so for anybody As well just me liking non-covered faces.
Perhaps a combination of these two?
Or perhaps something related to this look, two beautiful bronze helmet I like:
At last, this are helmets from a chinese movie, inspired at least from ancient armour if not autentic. Would all in all make a great BN armour but the helmet on this fellow in the middle is quite awesome IMO:
