Your shadows are too extreme in your previews, and make it look a lot less detailed than it really is.

After opening this up, I saw that it is quite a beautiful model. The file size is high, but it's worth it. 5/5.

From now on I'm going to be looking forward to your next models.

Byootiful. Very detailed.

You are great using the in game textures. On first sight i though it was custom texture. As others said, very detailed like the rest of your attachments. Keep it up.

Thanks a lot for the comments, guys!

I'll keep that in mind in the future

Booyah, finally new helmets for the masses! Great work Solu, as always!

The filesize is a boner-kill, though. Is there no way to make it smaller?

 

[Solu9]

Again. Thanks for all the comments

I have tried removing as much geometry as I thought possible.
I fizzled with the idea of removing most of the inner part of the mask (the part which is against the villager's face) but I still want the mask to look good if it is used in a third person map or at close ups.

To retain the level of detail the mask has, quite a few polygons must be preserved. If you look at the mesh on the mask itself (both front and back) you can see it is quite messed up.
This is due to optimizing and it not noticeable in game.

Edit:
I have uploaded a corresponding icon here:

how to attach it? with "head" string doesn't work

Then it might be the model you are trying to attach the mask to that is causing the problem. Are you certain the unit model has a "head" attachment point?
