Author Topic: Late 15th century frog mouth helms Dave Rylak Member Member # 342 posted 10-20-2004 08:11 PM                God knows why, but I've been siezed by a desire to make one of these. would anyone here have any measurements taken from extant examples?

You'd figure that these would be pretty beefy, though, wouldn't ya? After all it's almost exclusively a Joust helm. -------------------- Geoffrey Bourrette Man At Arms Registered: May 2000  |  IP: Logged Gwen Member Member # 126 posted 10-27-2004 09:56 PM                   Dave, contact Jeff directly. He's working on one for himself right now (I think it has a raised skull but I'm not certain) and I'm sure he'll help you out.

Jeff showed me some pics of the rough skull at Pennsic, it's going to be stunning when done. I'll get in touch with him thanks again. Registered: Jul 2002  |  IP: Logged
