So after some experiments a not-so-perfect Hussar helmet was made. Because of the separate parts it seems like I'll have to hand-paint it later: first some duct tape all over to cover the staplers and provide strenght, then an undercoat, metallic colors (there's a brand whose acrylic costs 2$ and contains more than its enamel counterpart), some weathering maybe and a coat of varnish, it must be tough enough when it's finished.
Front view with adjustable faceguard. There are some problems with the shape but it looks good overall.
Rear view, the tail is made of separate pieces.
