I've been working on the helmet since Day 1. Now that that head has been repositioned, it was time to bring all the elements from the neck-up together to get a compositional perspective of the piece.
I first reworked the bowl of the helmet to accommodate the visor. The Green Scar's helmet was what can best be described as "pseudo-Attic", with a prominent visor. The visor was made from two layers of MS: the first to define placement; the second to define form and volume. This is now being finished.
I then permanently attached the earlier-reworked crest. . . I am delighted with the way things have turned out!
UPDATE 13.11.2018. . . Phase 1 finishing of the visor has been completed; and, following addi- tional reworking of the bowl, the visor has been permanently attached. Final finishing and detail- ing of the helmet can now begin in earnest. . .
