Well, here goes! This is me at the Romeinenfestival 2012 with the Roman smithy. I believe that when you get older in military re-enactment, it would be good to look at civilian impressions. I am portaying a ex Batavian auxilary who after retiring from the army kept his learned trade as blacksmith. Blacksmith tools are based on the finds from Mannersdorf, Austria

Quote: I believe that when you get older in military re-enactment, it would be good to look at civilian impressions.yes, you're right. I'll be 48 in two weeks, perhaps I should be looking for a trade...

@ Robert Vermaat, So now get out of the army and become an honest cives.

Old soldiers never die...they just fade away!
48 is a bit young to be thinking of hanging up the hobnails!
I'm older than that and I'll be damned if I'll go down with out a fight!

Frankly, I'm still portaying a soldier even though I am now 60 years old. I'm helped a bit that most people say that I don't look my age-supposedly I look younger. However, I also describe myself as an evocatus, who was asked by his centurion to stay on. It is useful to explain that I will only get one (1) retirement payout when I do decide to get out of the army, not my first 20 years retirement payout + more.
I do like seeing civilian impressions. Rounds out the Roman world. I enjoy seeing civilian impressions in many different eras!
Re: Show here your ancient civilian impression - agrimensor - 08-20-2012
You do look younger, but do you have a civ impression too.
Re: Show here your ancient civilian impression - Römische Schmiede - 08-22-2012
