Hi again,
Thank you for the kind comments :-)
Just to mention that the target of the "Composite Corinthian" project was not to create an exact copy of the helmet in painting. We rather wanted to examine the special functional characteristics of the composite construction.
For example you will see that there is a different suspension of the scales than the original. The shape also is a bit different.
Regarding the cap, we also "played" with curly wool (reminding human hair) and metal spring... finally we preferred the leather strips, as they seem to be much more masculine...
I attach 2 fotos of a more final version, with leather strips folded
