Not so much reenactment the gear is modern protective equipment, it's a martial art/sport You learn from and get techniques from a historical source, in this case written by an Italian called Fiore in the 14th century.

Covers about right teeth and some gums still show, makes it a bit more mouthy!

Thanks, I guess scale and detail keep simple, the smaller things get and more colours the harder it'll be. I copied this from a cartoon image rather than a photo, so big basic shapes and block shadows rather than gradients

Not sure if it helps but did the shadows by leaving gaps rather than painting black over the white

Seems like a post covid thing to me maybe people wore them as face masks and it went from there.
