Thanks, very looking forward to getting some time for the next step, filing the nose and cheek guards, and scrubbing off that layer of varnish they cover it with, and giving it a good buff.
The brass is pretty thin, extending the nose was hard. It was heated, then about 2-3 VERY light hammer hits on the edge then re-heating to hammer it flat again. A slow and repetative process.

Let your warriors be your shield, and your horse be your saviour, for I will live to see another fight another day.
