my new helmet

[kareina]

...kinda appears in a photo from Coronet Tourney--before the tourney we ducked into a corner of the building, out of the wind to do adjustments to the helmet. I am wearing the helm padding, which is covered in black linen, under which I have an unbleached linen coif. In the opening of the padding you can see the lump of my ear, with the hearing aid behind it, positioned such that none of the padding will ever contact the ear or the hearing aid. In Keldor's hands you can see the underside of the helmet itself, with the gaps between the various pieces, to let sound in. I am quite happy with it and how nice it is to be able to hear whilst wearing it.

There don't appear to be any photos of me actually wearing the helmet.
