step 1 of 5

Cut out pieces of our friends dome to make sections of the helmet.

Used burn & dodge to add edges to the sections, as well as some hue & saturation, and filter layers to adjust the colors.

Used a small clump of eyebrow hair to make the thread for the stitches and duplicated and moved it around many, many times.

step 3 of 5

Added the far ear flap and lined the inside using some of the rag behind our friends right shoulder. I used the same rag to make the straps (which I didn't like and later replaced with straps made from the canvas texture provided in my sources)

The base that the helmet is setting on is a quick photo I took of my desk lamp.

step 5 of 5

Added the Heisman trophy to the background and used Gaussian Blur to blur the heck out of it.

After I changed the straps (mentioned in previous step) I added shadows and reflections of the trophy and straps to the lamp base.
