I've been working on this helmet off and on between projects since last fall. I just picked up leathercrafting again about a year ago after a 30 year hiatus, and I really picked a doozy to jump back into (my first real helmet/mask - I usually just make belts and bracelts). It's been so fun to tinker with and I've definitely learned a lot while working on this helmet (called "Dust Angel" on Vasile and Pavel's pattern site). They've been great, and answered a lot of my pesky questions during the assembly process. I realized I've still got a lot to learn and I could definitely use some refinement, but I'm pretty happy with how this turned out!
