Helm update

Got an email from Sir Donngal last night. He tells me that he's getting the art "back" this week (so I take that to mean he is having someone else do the actual drawing). He gave the translated inscription to whomever is doing the artwork for him, and he thinks this person can fit it in.

His plan is to transfer the art to the brass this week. After the plaque is attached, all that's left is attaching the grill and the maille, which should be simple. He also wrote this:

"BTW, this helm is making people who stop by the shop very jealous and they all want to switch to Russian."

To which I say, yer damn right.
