Fixing Helmet Crest

[Sulla]

Hi I have a crest that I just got in a package deal and its coming apart. All the hair is loose and its just slid back for now. Its also missing the center support and was only held on by the front and back straps. Is it worth fixing or can I buy a replacement? Some images below.







Thanks for the help.

Ah, a Deepeeka crest. This isn't the first one to come apart. If you got it from a vendor, I'd say send it back for a refund if you can. If not, pull the rest of the hair out to use as helmet padding, and make a completely new crest.

Yup, you'll need a central support, too. Sorry about that, amice!

Vale,

But shouldn't everyone be using moss hair for their crests anyway? :wink:

[size=150:lemqiciq]W[/size]ell, I don't much know about the crest itself. LaWren's Nest can make the Italic crest holder. As for the helmet... I have a website here about the Italic D, my favourite helmet. It's not done ([size=75:lemqiciq]are they ever?[/size]), but it has some notes and things about the helm. If you want, I can send you my patterns for the eagles -- then you may replace the nasty ones made by our heroes at Deepeeka... theirs look like drunken baby pterodactyls :-0
