I'm pretty sure knights don't have horns on there helmets...looks more Norse than anything. Is that an extra shadow inside the helmet there, or is something funky going on?

Knights had all sorts of shit on their helmets, to look as scary as possible to the enemy (as if they didn't have enough kilos to carry all ready) user added image

The thing inside the helmet is prolly some of the bump mapping showing through, but it doesn't matter as it is now.
