Description
A helmet I made just for the fun of it.I have always admire Tom Banwells work (not that mine is even close as good but...) I thought I just have a go at making one my style.
All fitting looking like bone carvings is all handmade by me too, just in clay instead of bones this time around

Very nice work, went immediately into my faves. Really love the knotwork animorphic. I am just beginning to work on a full set of leather armor myself and this is very similar to what I see in my head for my own project. Have you played around with wet-molding leather yet? Love the rest of your work too...I'm following you!

Wow, this is so cool! Well done! I really like the little viking guy on the front--nicely similar to carvings of that age.

this is fantastic, the tooling fantastic, the lacing is perfect adds a nice little touch the color contrast on the leather and whole piece is great, the skulls add a little bit of an embellishment not too much though. i only hope one day i can have this much skill. thank you for sharing your work

There is a leather forum online that if you have not been there you need to visit. The forum has +10000 members from all over the world, all from total beginners to authors of leather books. Very useful and super friendly: www.leatherworker.net
Tools: Good working bevellers in all shapes & sizes, with these you can make most any pattern. A good knife for cutting out parts, an edge trimmer, this should be a great start.
