Quote:"Many"?? Not in my experience! WoadWarrior was about the first I'd run into who had a real problem with that. Anyone else who as asked about the differences between us and the movies, over the years, has been satisfied with the truth: We're right, and the movies are wrong. Simple.
Yes, you are quite right, I agree movies are nearly if not always wrong, and I am not trying to defend hollywood here. Perhaps it is just a teenage thing, but most of my friends and some acquaintances say that for some reason hollywood 'looks' more realistic. When I went on to ask why, they practically unanimously agreed it was because of the 'worn out' look. I still prefer the shiny/polished look to hollywood, but all I am saying is that the public seem to have an easier time with the weathered looks.

My point is an old/repaired/seasoned and clean, polished and shiny-but-not-as-shiny lorica will look different to a straight from the Fabrica one.
Yours actually fits the bill perfectly, it looks used. Its beautiful :wink:
