Thank you for the reply Renger. It is one of the best I have seen.

This is literally the only image of myself I have.

The equipment sucks, yes, but that's because it's only a Loaner kit. I don't have my own stuff yet (besides a Tunic I made myself and Armamentaria Castleford Caligae) and probably wont for another 10 years.

Thanks, This was from last year, at our big event (Castra Romana X I believe) and I'll be there this year at Castra Romana XI (hopefully I'll have a new camera xD)

I'm working on improving my gear. I just bought a Crossbow Fibulae and plan on getting either a Tunica Mancata or a Sagum Cloak with a Fascia Ventralis for my birthday.


Also, I like your auxillary impression. We have a guy from Legio 9 that comes down and does that.

Why not try to make it youself, it is cheaper and you learn a lot 2. Most fabric things, and even leather aren't that difficult !!! Give it a try.

Yeah, I made my own Wool Tunic, I might make my own late Roman with simple clavicii and orbuli.

I would not go for the crossbow fibula, as it is more a late roman
Piece!
There quite a few others, the knee type or bow broaches etc that are first century!
Unless of course you are planning on doing later roman!?

Well, I'm only 16 so money is usually a problem, but I do plan on doing late Roman in the future. Right now there's only principate.

What helmet looks better do you think? Intercisa-I or Intercisa-II? Right now I'm thinking more intercisa-II.


Show here your Roman soldier impression - Gaius Julius Caesar - 10-05-2012

The II is more interesting looking! I have a IV which is basically a II
With the fin crest. While not my favourite helmet, they are interesting!


Show here your Roman soldier impression - Flavivs Aetivs - 10-05-2012

Yeah I was leaning towards the II, I like the intercisas - simple but cool looking.
