About this image

So, there was a number of requests for a spectacle helmet for this mod. I have been working on one to fit the set, what do you think? Want some feedback before I add it and make everyone update the file, haha.

    hahah i didn't know what's a spectacle helmet, i've just googled it LOL, keep them

    I mean that would look good with the lighting and color of the all one, i think that one matches right.
    And a bit more relief in the middle, maybe with the normal map will be enough, noo need to tweak the model

    Then it'd not be a spectacle helmet, now would it. But in effect, adding both present options, and an unspectacled spectacle helmet would be fine of course. In fact, not fine, but great. Maybe you could add some wear (scratches, even some actual cutting damage). If at all possible, a normal map which shows some dents from hammering out the helmet would be great. A bit like this:

    The goggle parts are going to stay since that was the whole point of the helmet haha.

    I could make more detail, but making it too flowery seemed unrealistic to me - what did you have in mind?

    Darker could work, but in general I was trying to go with the color of the chainmail.

    I'd change a few thing:

    -It may look a bit undetailed, just grey in some parts.
    -I'd make it a bit darker.

    Anyway it's my taste, good work

    But i'd also keep both helmets, the first one (before this update) look good

    I custom made the alpha layer not to be too shiny, but it responds to light as metal should.

    I think it's got all the proper dimensions right. Looks authentic. Maybe it could use a little more shine, but if it's responsive to specularity settings, I can add that in-game.

    Thanks for doing this hothtrooper. You're a real trooper!
