!And please tell me if there's wrong information!
Because I have +40 books/dictionaries of (medieval) Arms and Armor, I was able to make it (And names of country are perhaps incorrect because some information was contradicted among some books and this transition is that I thought based on those books.
This picture is one of transition of Medieval Helm based on my research.

Where is the Pembridge helm ??!! The transitional crusader helmet ?! The Maciejowski Bible helm ??!!
I'm sorry to say this but many of those helms are totally unhistorical ( especially the ''Greek'' one)
I don't know what are your references, but if you like real medieval armor, I suggest you to check out the armour archive website and forums [link]

Wow..that's a lot of helms. Um, yes they are indeed very stunning, especially since you painted each and everyone to get the perfect shading.I love the Roman helms and some of the french helms such that they are just so intimidating to the eyes. I enjoyed this alot, good work.

Oh, thank you so much 
Those helms are old, but I'm glad to know there are some people who still like them
By the way, here is my medieval folder [link]
You can see some picture of transition of medieval helms
(But because I made them based on my research, perhaps there are some incorrect information. So please tell me if you find strange part
1) Ketttle hat -> Sallet [link]
2) Bascinet -> Bicoquet [link]
3) Great Helm -> Jousting Helm (this picture)
4) Armet -> Maximilian Helm sketch version
And I'll make more picture to show the construction of Armet/Renaissance helm, Maximilian Helm.
Anyway, I wish you'll enjoy seeing them ;D

Thanks for the info! I appreciate it. I guess I will just have to stick with the helms with a face guard.
Your renditions look great. Keep it up!

You are welcome
And I'm glad to hear it ^^
By the way, if you like my picture(s), would you add my pictures to your favorite lists? It will be my another incentive to researching and making on medieval things ^^

The Roman helms pictured-
When did they come into existence? Were they used by crusaders?
I'm wondering if helms like that were in existence beginning 1177 to 1187?
And have you seen Kingdom of Heaven?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, some of them use it
In fact, according to the seal of Richard I of England, he used Great Helm. So It appeared in 1189-1199 at least ^^
But according to the seal of Henry II of England (1154-1189), he didn't used it, instead he used Norman's helm. So perhaps there is no Great Helm, or they were not used by crusaders around 1177-1187.
Kingdom of Heaven? Umm...perhaps I did, but I'm sorry...I don't remember most of the content
