Close Helmet
Close Helmet by an unknown artist. Dark grey metal helmet with gold accents, shaped like a snarling animal head with an open mouth showing teeth. The helmet has a rounded top and a curved visor that forms the snout. Gold details include etched designs on the top and sides, and a gold-painted beard and eyebrows. The mouthguard has a row of small teeth along the top edge. A neck guard is attached at the bottom, with a small knob on the left side. The background is grey, with a white pole visible at the bottom supporting the helmet.
