Not bad. Try to keep it closer to being symmetrical in future sketches, though; it's rather glaring in the current one.
Very interesting symbol.

It can be a good idea to use grid paper for this sort of thing- it really helps when it comes to keeping it symmetrical.

I think it looks very good, even though it's not symmetrical. It looks like a masterpiece compared to what I could manage.

Driver, that's because you're the only one here who was around to ever see a 70s porn moustache to use as a reference.

Everyone else has been complementing you. Them saying that the symmetry is off is something call critique. If you don't want any of that, don't post your stuff on here. Because you are going to get critique whether you like it or not. [Edited to show what I was hitting on, since apparently it wasn't obvious enough.]

Uh . . . Star? That wasn't really called for. From what I could gather, he was actually thanking Skarr for his compliment, not being sarcastic or whatever you thought he was doing.

Uhm... I wasn't yelling or anything? Plus, I think worse things have been said on this ComNet before. But whatever. Oh and and as far as thanking Skarr goes, yes I KNOW he was thanking Skarr. But he said 'Aww the first compliment'. THAT is what I picked up on. So I think it was perfectly called for. But again, whatever.

Methinks he was mainly pointing out that a more diplomatic tone ought to be used with someone you don't yet know really well.
@razor: He is right, though, that we've been complimenting it in our own way...our own very obscure, confusing way.

Diplomatic? Where did politics come into play when speaking to someone on a forum? I was being blunt so that he could understand me, rather than just beating around the bush.

Star, I think you might have been a tad bit harsh on the guy
I'll go with what Sam said.
It's a good start and might have alot of potential.
Whoever suggested grids, yes. I'd definetely recommend it for you to use. You lose the essence of your object being an helmet due to the lack of the symetry in it, which already has been said.
For the visor glasses, take a pair of sunglasses and see how the light reflects on it. While its not symmetrical, there is definitely a line in how the light runs.
Otherwise good start, those gold designs if properly executed can look damn awesome.
Keep up with the work because practice makes perfect.
