Thanks, Connor

The Daniyal model is WAY better. The Centurion helmet is just barely passable, but Daniyal is the better helm. Are you still trying to find a good Late Roman helmet? If you are, then the best are Daniyal and Al-Hamdd and not Deepeeka. Save up and get a good helmet from one of the above or save up more and get an even better one from a smith custom made Confusedmile:

P.S. On the other late Roman helmet thread, we already said which Deepeeka is good and it is the Burgh Castle helmet.

No, it's not. There's no central ridge joining the two bowl halves like on their other Late Roman helmets. The crest is attached directly to a one piece bowl. So no, it is not historically accurate.
