Mainz sword transformation

Yes! I'm very happy with his work. He commonly do iberian stuff, but i have convinced him to do some roman work.

The third photo is not of the same helmet. It's from a greek one (boetian?)

More pictures avitianus. Actually I have made two helmets, one big and one small, and I hope one of them suits you.
The ear protections aren't welded, they are hammered, and I only have to mount the accesories. In a few days I will have finished. Until then I hope you like the images

Man! That s so cool guys! How did you make those helmets? are they spun? how does that work?

[LUCIUS ALFENUS AVITIANUS]

Not spun! There are raised with a hammer, beginning from a sheet of brass!

[tDub248]

I'm very happy with the helmet. Has been a very good work and very funny to see how the work is going. I have give Pastor the pictures and asesoration (with some help from Peroni), and he has made the rest of work. Of course, it has been easier with the sizes taken from ROMANARMY.com, and the high detailed pictures form LEGIO VI web page ( www.legiosix.org ).

It's very diferent from a deepeeka helmet, because it's very irregular, and very light. In fact the original (without cheekpieces) only weights 800 grams.

So, you know if you want a very high quality custom work, with a affordable price, Pastor is the man!
