dka120: I like the idea of only one 3D contest at the time! 3D seems to be more time consuming than 2D. Maybe this can result in more entries! (162 days ago)
billyboy: People, first thing on an entry should be the name of graphic software you used. Excellent SBS whitout this important detail. Should be a Nostradamus to guess what is the principal 3D program. (154 days ago)
dka120: I agree Billyboy! But what if someone happened to be only member using a certain software? The rule of keeping the entry anonymous wpiƶdm (153 days ago)
dka120: ...(whoops, wrong key)... The rule of keeping a entry anonymous would be somewhat violated. (153 days ago)
billyboy: dka, our 3D community on PXL is still very small. Its difficult to be anonymous. I think is more important for us to know what different programs we use and this way to help each other to improve our skills. (151 days ago)
dka120: ..sure, you have a point. But beeing the only one using a certain software leaves no one to there help. And if someone is, it's still easy to recognize the softwares name of the function if the SBS is detailed. (151 days ago)
whiteshade: Cnnt log onto forum, can someone tell me why this has been extended?? (148 days ago)

I wanted to do a Roman helmet, so given what I know, i browsed around the web, looked in books, Anway I found this site: http://www.gunsandswords.com/roman-centurion-helmet.html.

A tribute to the Mark Anthony helmet entry by *** :)

I wanted to make something looking like the helmet/mask in the movie Gladiator, (Ridley Scott 2000). I didn't find any blueprints or good pics for reference, so i improvised my own version. The helmet part is spline patched togheter and the mask is sub patched. No Photoshop post processing.



Edit: Added spikes as details to the helmet and modified the grass.

Couldn't find a good view to display this helmet, so I modeled and arranged it(them) into a scene instead.

As always - it's better viewed in Hi-Res.
