<![CDATA[Lord Fear's Helmet]]>Lord Fear had a couple of helmets in his 4 series of Knightmare. Which one of these helmets do you prefer? Do you like the shiny metal effect from series 5-7, or would you rather him wear the white, skull helmet from series 8?

Personally, I think that the helmet from series 8 looks rather stupid, and I don't like it.

What do you think?

It's just because Lord F looked like a Lord in them while in the Series 8 one he looked less of a Lord.

I agree with MPK the the earlier costume was a cross between Dracula/Gallifreyan cloak.

The second would have worked better depending on the skull design... it should have been angrier, more...evil if you will!

We could also talk about the entire dress code of Fear... did people like the cross between Dracula/Gallifreyan cloak? Or the newer one?

Which of Lord Fear's two helmets is best? I think the first one, the silver one with all the funny little...dents in it (can't think of how else to describe them, lol!). It goes well with his costume. The skull helmet was really cool but was a bit too tight, methinks!

It made me scared! Reminds me of Voldemort (Harry Potter books).

It seems they paid great attention to detail in using the Chromakey technology. Certainly there's none of the hideous mistakes that other shows of the period made while using it (actors disappearing into backgrounds, horrible edging appearing around actors and such). I guess they made certain of everything since it was to be so central to the look of the programme, whereas many other shows just thought "Oooh, lets add some blue screen technology!" and then went on to mess it up.

The K-Line sprays help, but you tend to lose detail, at least until you clean the stuff off

I liked the idea of the skull. It just didn't work that much. Now a shiny metal helmet with a skull etched into the metal, on the other hand...

And yes actually I did prefer his shiny helmet!  ;D The helmet he had in series 8 was rather funky with the skeleton on the back, but the problem was with the shape as it was too close fitting to his head, it made him look a bit daft!
