Looks nice and clean-cut compared to a lot of people's first attempts. Good job!

Personally, I'd fill in the top dome part with either leather or chainmaille; that way you'll actually have protection from arrows and rocks.

This.

Perhaps add like a skull cap and a lobster tail?

Wow- slightly creepy. Thanks!
I have about four armor projects half done that I can finally complete when I finish moving- then I can post pics of my newer stuff.

Robin- Looking good! You have enough empty space that you could have some real fun with a wood burner.
