Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - FAVENTIANVS - 03-22-2006 Thanx my friend! In fact, My mum will paint a Neptune inside Tibisius scutum, because the front also has aquatic decoration. Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - FAVENTIANVS - 03-24-2006 A general view of our shields... http://geocities.com/ivarmaelstrom/maratots1.jpg Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - FAVENTIANVS - 03-24-2006 Yes, he's always smiling! There's no way to turn him serious... :lol: Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - FAVENTIANVS - 03-31-2006 Robert, as I promised... the inner side of my clipeus: I took the sizes from Simon James Dura Europos Book, 100x80 cm. I'd have liked to make it dished but I ain't that skilled Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Pegasus - 03-31-2006 Faventianus , Thats A great Job , well done . Is this the start of painting your Clipeus or is the front done as well ? if so I would like to see it . Well Done . Pegasus . Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Tarbicus - 03-31-2006 Quote:Robert, as I promised... the inner side of my clipeus:Comes with paintbrush holders as well :wink: Very very nice. Nice one Faventianus. Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - FAVENTIANVS - 03-31-2006 Thank you very much Pegasus and Tarbicus!!!! Here comes the front side: It's finished by now... until I find something else to add, like some Jupiter, Mithras or some other God... :wink: Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - FAVENTIANVS - 03-31-2006 Quote:Comes with paintbrush holders as well :wink: Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Theodosius the Great - 03-31-2006 FAVENTIANVS, Wow, that's mind-blowing :o I think you're the first reenactor I've seen to have plumbatae stored behind his shield. Do you think you could still attach them if your shield was dished ? I'm not sure how that could work :? Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - FAVENTIANVS - 04-01-2006 If they are shorter, I don't see why not. Vortigern have'em as well, in his other flat shield, but they are longer than mine. You won't know until you try it yourself :wink: that's why re-enactors are for, experimenting! so, go ahead! Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Robert Vermaat - 04-01-2006 Quote:Vortigern have'em as well, in his other flat shield, but they are longer than mine. Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Theodosius the Great - 04-01-2006 Quote:If they are shorter, I don't see why not. Vortigern have'em as well, in his other flat shield, but they are longer than mine. Hmm...I have to get plumbatae first. Yeah, making them shorter seems to make good sense. Thanks for the tip. Vortigern, Very nice 8) On both of your shields it looks like the plumbatae are held by a metal bar or a leather strip. Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Robert Vermaat - 04-01-2006 Actually, I know (of) at least four reenactors with plumbata in their shields: Leg XIIII (UK), I think Crispvs is the owner, Rob from the Batavi, then Ivan and myself. All flat shields, but I'm working on shorter ones behind my dished shield. Not a problem. Yes, Mine are held with a leather strap. A bit loosely anyway, because I figure they were not carried to march with but to be distributed just before battle.
