[Chivalry] Mason Archer - "Flight of the Crimson Eagle" Set

What an awesome contest! I'm excited to give good ol' Mason Archer some fearsome new equipment. I'm aiming to make a helmet and a standard crossobow for this guy.

I've gathered some reference images on my pinterest pages here: http://www.pinterest.com/gticopeland/crossbow-reference/

and here:

I've started cranking away on some rough concepts for the helmet:


Aiming to make something that's practical, while also fitting the original visual footprint of the Mason Archer's helmet.

Concepts for the crossbow coming soon!

Someone else is rolling with the Eagle theme for the Archer, maybe he is making one for Agatha. Hopefully the crossbow ends up with wings too, that would be sweet. Good start. I personally like the ones with tail-feathers out the back but it might be a pain. #4 looks the most solid so far.

Thanks Noth!
Yeah, I saw that Tobbo is doing a Mason Archer set as well. I don't want to tread on his style, but I think there's plenty of room to play within the eagle motif.

I do love the hussar-style feathers, and if I can make them work in-engine, I'd love to add them.
