Though its in Japanese, the various links lead to downloadable PDF files with colour cutout patterns for various historic samurai's helmets. I know these aren't their in-game versions, but they are really SIMPLE and useful if you want to try experimenting with modifying them for cosplay. Instructions are in Japanese, but the pictures are self-explanatroy. I imagine that using the same patterns on plastic might result in very realistic helmets. From top to bottom:

Naoe Kanetsugu
Uesugi Kenshin
Uesugi Kagekatsu
Mogami Yoshiaki
Takeda Shingen
Maeda Keiji
Date Masamune
Odake ???
Katakura Kojuro

The rest of the site seems to be pure Naoe Kanetsugu fanservice :P

nice one zaku. to think they designed a website for kids so they can relate to the taiga drama. have you seen the kenshin yet? it's really different from sengoku musou, and even gackt's version from 2007's fuurinkazan.

Well, I'm very happy with his cute bald look in the old paintings and i have a little toy replica of his armor - that's about as much as I know of his RL appearance.

The new Kenshin looks better than Gackt's version imo...Gackt looks like an undead lol. Now he looks the way I really imagine he should.

edit: the Tenchijin Kanetsugu is adorable enough tho :P
edit2: Yukimura is also very, very kawaii. I shall watch this and start cracking out the yaoi fanfic really soon ;)
