Title: I Need an Artemis Helmet
Post by: Nevermore2010 on July 13, 2010, 05:53:21 AM
So yeah lol I need an Artemis Helmet. I know they are increasingly rare but if anyone has one avaliable i'll happily pay or trade if possible. I also know this isnt really a Trading forum but i've always had more luck here then anywhere else. Please let me know if you have one available.

As I said in another thread just the other day...

If you're looking for a marine helmet, you should post on the Arcadian Smugglers Ring (link is in the resources thread) - its a site set up specifically for trading Inquisitor parts so as to keep the 'Clave from getting bogged down with requests for trades. Although I suspect that, given the number of people looking for them, all the spare ones have been traded away already. That said, I can't be the only person who's hanging onto one for a future project - so you might get lucky!

Bear in mind that you're the second person in a week to ask for one, and it's probably the most requested part - so the chance of anyone offering to trade are slim.  Have you looked at some of the alternatives?  A Defiler head makes a good starting point for a Chaos marine or artificer helmet.

I suppose if push comes to shove i could do an unhelmeted version... we'll see how the project goes i guess.

If I were you, I'd start implementing the alternative plan. I'd only trade the helmet I have for something really good - something I either really need or really want. And I imagine the other people who have one feel the same - their scarcity means I wouldn't trade it for just any old part as I'm unlikely to get another...

Or if you're really set on a helmet than perhaps just pull a lot of pictures of it and have a go at crafting your own, that way once you've got it spot on, or as close as you can get and are happy with, you can cast as many of your own as you want! For personal use only of course...and maybe call it a space soldier helmet...
