Suggestions for Future Motifs

Without an efficient method to include this in /feedback and seeing no better category/forum to post this, I wish to share the kind of armor styles I would like to see in ESO. I have created a half dozen armor sets at least to try and accomplish these styles ingame, with my most recent efforts bearing the best fruit. However, the right helm has always been lacking.

These are images of armor sets from other games, past Elder Scrolls titles, and the physical world that "tickle my fancy."
Game titles included so the Devs can find the games each armor is from to see them in action, as pictures will not show every detail.

    The helm for Mercenary Motif is pretty accurate for a medieval helm.

    But not quite the helm I am looking for, @Korah_Eaglecry
    Look to most of the Dark Souls 3 armor sets for the type of helm I really want ingame.

    For that Oblivion iron armor style use the Soul Shriven motif.

    The Breton heavy is fairly close resemblance to the dark souls one

    In this side view you can see more of the helm's design. I agree the Breton helm is close, but like the Merc, still off. I cannot stand the exagerated "fins" and mohawks on helms.

    As of to why specifically Merc is off: the shape is right but the detailing gives it the look of not entirely being made of metal. It seems like the front lower face cover is hardened leather rather than continuous steel.

    Certain aspects of Craglorn Yokudan are on point with what I like, Gauntlets and Pauldrons especially. Take a look at the Way of Fire set to see them.
