I have loved to draw helms since I first discovered that I could. ‘Mantled Helm’ was my first helm drawing in 1977!
I think helms are so neat with their many designs & styles from so many eras & cultures. I seem to be attracted to more central European, Norse & Celtic styles. I have drawn a number of helms over the last 3 decades.
‘Mantled Helm’ is a medieval Jousting Helm from 1485 AD. I has seen that kind of helm in art & just had to draw it with a stylized heraldic mantling, as I felt that helm just seemed to need it, rather than a ‘torque’ (Latin word: torque or torques – meaning a collar of twisted fabric – later used around the top of a helm often 2 or 3 colors of one’s Arms (Heraldic Device) & secured with or without lengths as a plume in the back. Do look at my SCA Medieval Newsletter Covers shown herein, as there is a cover with 4 different helms inside a shield with a fancy plumed helm & mantling at the top of the shield. That same design was used for two different newsletters.
