First of all I like what you guys are doing, keep it up.
Unfortunately, your reproduction of the Deurne helmet has some serious issues. The shape of both neck plate as well as cheek plates is wrong. Also, there is no trace of 'jewels' on the crest (you've been thinking of another helmet I'm afraid). Also, you've been fooled by the mistakes in the 1910 reconstruction of the missing cheek plate - there are no rivets along the edge of the plate, just holes to attach the leather edging.
