Hi Anubismp Try leather armor harding "for paintball" by Druid hope this helps. I think it was some time in September scroll through the whole thing his helmet cover might be what you were thinking of.
I seem to rember that Tom Banwell had a shako and a Dragoon helm on his site. I seem to recall that he had a tutorial for some kind of hat or helmet. I hope this helps good luck.
