Big knight enjoying the shade

so this is a little outside my area of skill for character art but i'll try to explain what i know since knights' helmets serve as a "faceless" face, they're normally not very expressive outside of their static existing "face", but since cartoons and comics are not real, we can mold a faceless face into expressions just like a regular face

i've used this bascinet with just eyeslits but there's some with a "mouth" that you can also use, additionally i've conveyed the emotions using the plume, effectively treating it as a functional bodypart. this of course applies to any helmet ever:
