These are modeled after real Medieval helmets and kept as true to form and shape as I could manage. All were mostly used in Europe during the later medieval period. They go great with any transitional or plate armors.
The texturing/modelling is not the greatest but they are pretty good.
Please leave any feedback you have.

1- Extract the RAR file into a Module of your choice
