There's some very good effort there.

out of curiosity but is the third person from the left (with the red shield) standing in a hole?, he seems small (considering that i'm almost 2m tall)

Hey Fauentane, it seems you and friends coming by stargate directly from the various roman times for a meeting... Big Grin

He's a 11 years old friend of us, who is passioned for reenactment and his father made a smaller but real equipment for him, I wish I had that when was his age too!! :wink:

From left to right:

Faventianus (IV century), Tibisius (III century, optio), the kid (altimperial), Jordi Garcia (Auxiliar, I century), Avitianus (war of the four emperors, legionary), Maritimus (augustean period), Bernus (republican period, triarius), Placidius (republican period, veles)

There are more impressions in the group, but no more members... :lol:
Next time we'll wear two helmets, two armours, etc. :roll: Just kidding. :wink:

Quote:I´m working on a complete diffrent design for a friend though, witch will be more suted for petrigues. The first one is made to be used with a slimfitting Hamata but the new one is more adapted for use together with a Seg. Radically diffrent design. More of a square vest with a rectangular shoulderpiece in one piece.

Yesterday I finished it!!! Will post a picture this afternoon. With Petrigues and all.

Here´s a pic of it... http://www.myarmoury.com/talk/viewtopic ... 8857#88857 ... but I cant figure out how to show it here on RAT.

(EDIT: I manage to put a picture in...)

Thats impressive! Very archaic looking! It is for Hamata?
Can I show off mine for some constuctive criticism? It is for a sementata, and need some mods for authenic fastening!

I have the same prob myself when trying to show pics! :oops:

It works with a L. Ham., but it is made for a L. Seg. I have another one (the white one futher up in this thread) witch is made espechially for a Hamata with short sleves.

OK I was just wondering with the peturges, as some people say that they are not used with segmentata! Mine opens at the front like you other one, but need to find proper fasteners, a sat the moment i am cheating and using kilt buckles! :oops:

I was thinking along those lines for a centurion hamata sub, but then I have seen pictures in osprey, I think, of peturges on a subarmalis for a seg so....
looks good to me!
