Right now I'm fairly pleased with the basic shape of the helmet and I've added some basic texture to see how it looks.
The things I have to add is the wing and "flowers", but how should I make them, should I model them like a different object or model it in the main piece, or just texture?
It depends on how close you gonna render. Model a layer as a separate mesh and then just paint a bump. If you want better result use a displacement map. To model all that by hand would be a (k)nightmare, unless maybe you do it in ZBrush or Mudbox.
I decided to make the details as a different object I'm yet to decide how to make the "wings".
Well it will be fairly close up, approximately 50% of the scene will consist of this object.
PS. that "bumpy" area that looks a bit mistreated is just the remains of an old bump and specular map.
Edit: The area for the eye seems to still be a little to small in comparison to the reference but if I make it larger the helmet looks more or less surprised.
