Concept helmets?


Ive been thinking about another series of 'future war' troops and what headgear they would have. I was looking at the FÉLIN (Fantassin à Équipement et Liaisons Intégrés, Integrated Infantryman Equipment and Communications) for some inspiration and a google search let me to these concept. The lightweight helmet is worn over a balaclava , with FELIN attachments.  Let me know what you think

  2. If you could zoom in and/or crop out all of the extra space that would be cool. From what I can see however it looks pretty cool. There's a certain aesthetic to the asymmetrical, multi-lens headpiece rigs that you would associate with near-future soldiers.

  4. Better. I feel that the lower part of the helmet is too plain. Otherwise, is nice.

  6. As indicated before, the pics could be better, though I feel like a torso would allow us to see how you are going to fit it into a "Future Warrior" style weapons system (y'know, basically just how the helmeted head would sit on a body, with the body to add a sense of scale/proportion). That said, I like it. A lot. Keep it going, but finish off that Commonwealth squad first! Then show us some Free French Colonials. Especially if you make their personal weapons' similarity with the FAMAS end at a bullpup configuration.
