How expensive would be to make a steel replica of Dovahkiin'

Post » Wed Sep 07, 2011 9:53 am

Promotional plush hats are okay, but you know what's better? An actual HELMET! Made out of ACTUAL STEEL! Imagine wearing THAT to the midnight release of Skyrim!

Now, I'm no blacksmith, but how hard/expensive would it be to make a wearable http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Tamrielic_Relic? No idea what material the horns would be made out of.

Thoughts?

Steel -$100
Sheep Horns -$50
The look on your enemies face when you impale him on sheep horns- priceless

It would be very difficult. You would have to enlist the help of an experienced metal worker to make a good one

We would need to forge it on top of a snowy mountain....

Dovah's helmet seems very similar to http://store.theoldgiftshop.com/ir80627.html. Adding horns to it might be a cheap alternative...

I say make a leather one it would be significantly easier to make and shape. All you need is the right leather, horns, the appropriate crafting items and some good guidance on how to properly leathercraft a helmet. It could be pretty fun project if you have the time and patience.

I would take the horns off Dovah's helmet, I sure wouldn't add any to that helmet.

Wait, are people really paying $7.49 to wear that helmet in TF2?
