For my project I wanted to recreate the design of a crusader helmet. I've always found this helmet interesting because of its simplicity. It's essentially a metal bucket with breathing and seeing holes, and its that exact simplicity that I wanted to mimic.
Technique:
To make my helmet, I took it upon myself to go even simpler and bolder than the original crusader helmet. I got rid of the cross section in the middle because religion doesn't have to be a part of my design. I removed the eye holes and breathing holes, giving the wearer a complete sense of isolation, requiring them to rely entirely on intuition.
Materials:
My mask is made of a dense cardboard. It is robust and intimidating, and those who face a soldier with this mask may think they have the upper hand, but they simply do not understand what they are up against.
