Medieval Helms 5.01 (colored version)

This picture is one of transition of Medieval Helm based on my research.
I've made those pictures till now.
[1] Kettle Hat/ Sallet [link]
[2] Basinet/ Bicoquet [link]
[3] Great Helm: [link]
[4] Armet, Maximillian Helm: [link]

And now, I submitted
[5] Armet / Renaissance Helm.

*** please tell me if there's wrong information! ***

Here is the few information about those helms
Armet
Birthplace: Italian, 16C
Weight: 3.5kg
[Italian name] Elmetto
Because there are so many parts, they are heavy.

Maximilian Helm
Birth Place: German , about 1510
Weight: 3kg
[German Name] Riefelharnisch
[English Name] Fluted Helm
Those flutings make them lighter than not fluted Helms. The thickness is thin, but they are more elastic because of technique of sheet metal.

Renaissance Helm
Strictly speaking, It's ones of Close Helmets ("Geschlossener Helm" in German). And there is no helm that is called "renaissance helm".
But those helms' design are very beautiful (For example, a blue and gold close helmet (garniture of emperor maximilian II) has breathtaking contrast and beautiful design). I call those helms "Renaissance Helms".

GENERAL INFORMATION
　This is colored version.
The original size is 1736x1143
