Does anyone know where I can find a helmet similar to this? I dont really need a whole outfit..but just a helmet. One that is just a section of headband with the wings on each side so you can see the persons face. I have enclosed this sample..I would be happy to pay a fair price..any help would be appreciated! Thanks! :)

The one I have is part of a character set from Phoenix1966 called Kara Norse Elegance at Renderosity.
If not wanting an entire outfit, the Viking crown in Merlin's Medieval Crowns & Bracers pack is the best one I can think of...

It's for M4 & V4 but doesn't take much adjustment to fit to Genesis either.
Hey thanks Momster..I have search Rendo, here, Content Paridise and RDNA and have not found anything..I will look for that at Rendo! Hopefully maybe it is still available for sale! THANK YOU!! :)
Awww..they are no longer a vendor there :(
Hey Jabba101, Thank you! That is a good one too!! I dont know, but seems the "search" tool just does not show all items related to what you are searching for. Thank you so much! :)
OOOOOO.... a challenge! I'll get back to you.
OOOOOO.... a challenge! I'll get back to you.
LOL..OK Thank you Wancow!! :) Cant wait to see what you find! :)
I had part of it made and HEX crashed... GRRR... give me a day, can you give me a day? Please give me one day!
OMG you are making one??? Very cool!! I will buy from you! Sure..I wont be starting on this project for 2 more weeks but am searching for pieces I need..so there is lots of time!! THANK YOU!! Let me know when you get it ready and I will buy it! Thanks again!! :)
I'll do my best work then. I'll let you decide what it's worth.
is this pretty much how it's supposed to be worn? This is basically the frame... the almost plane white part...
Hi,,Thank you for working on this..I think that looks good. It appears like the part that sticks down is suppose to go on the nose because is looks like it should conform to the nose. The piece should fit V4..are you using V4 for the model it goes on? Thanks again for doing this. You will let me know how much you want for it! ? :) If I dont reply tonight dont freak...sirens are going off..storm warnings out and power has been going on and off :/
V4, okay. I'll just use the Genesis V4 morph then. Fewer Polygons, less taxing on Hex...
By the way, you're using Poser or D|S? I can set it up for D|S 4.5, if not, I'll have to export it as an OBJ.
Hi..It need to be Poser compatible..I dont use Daz Studio..I use Poser Pro 2012..is this a problem?
no. The OBJ setup is the same. I'll UVMap it and set up material zones normally... you'll just have to deal with the materials after you have it. It's best as a parented prop anyway, so it shouldn't be a problem.
Well. If it were going into D|S, I'd leave it in its base cage, but it should still be okay after subdivision.
OK great and OBJ will work perfect. Thanks again! I really appreciate it!
There is Svana

Link is for V4 but there is also a Genesis version as well.
Thank you so much icprncss! I got Wancow making me a helmet now tho so this search for me is done. Someone else may very well be interested in it tho. Thank you again!! :)
one thing that makes this easier is that I don't have to worry about collision detection, etc... but I will do my best to make it a good model... here's my progress so far.
wow..you work fast! I so wish I knew how to do this stuff! It looks great! I have no doubt it will look beautiful! :) There are not any winged helmets on any of the sites that I have searched so you may be able to get quite a bit of sales from this too should you decide to put it on the market. There is one that I saw on Daz here but you have to buy a whole outfit. This helmet will look gorgeous on my warrior lady! Great work!
I'm working on the feathers now... I thought you'd appreciate them being... a little more defined than on that image you posted, that okay?
Oh yea! The feathers are the most important..the warrior lady is to be a angel and she will also be having very large feathered wings on her back. I am so excited! Thanks so much! :)
then that is what I shall do... I'm going to take it into DAZ Studio and bake the shaders onto it... the image shows a very pearlescent type material, so I'll see If I can create a texture set that will give you that... So far as all those lines on the mask, I'll get you the UVS so you can apply displacement mapping. I'm not at all familiar with how Poser handles those, but I know it's vastly different from D|S, so I'm afraid you're on your own there... I'll also try to define material groups so they are somewhat comprehensive... I"m only using UVMapper Classic, so I'll do what I can with that. Hexagon will let me unwrap UVS but won't let me define more than one material on the same object group, I have to rely on UVMapper for that.
Hey sounds great to me! I am just glad to have the model itself! Going to bed now but will be back online early in the morn.
If you wanna email me, you can do so at: chris @ digitelldesign dot com ;)
Thanks again and good night!
I hope to have the preliminary obj in your mailbox tonight.
done modelling for the night... this looks like it might be the final geometries...
here's a render in D|S and it showed me I still have to fix a couple of things... but what do you guys think?
I think "wow!"
But also, did you try to slightly, just slightly, bend/curve some of the feathers so they won't all be on the same plane?
you mean like this?
okay, I finished it... :)
I think this is done. Exporting from D|S to Poser Scale and firing it off...
Here it is fit to Victoria 4
It is beautiful!! Great Job! I sent you an email. Now to get you paid! Thank you so much..this has been such a huge help to me! May I look you up again if I ever need something created?? :) Cheers!! Check you email!
