Centurio helmet crests or crests in general

[Peroni]

Speaking of colors, is it difficult to dye horse hair. It seems straight foward on the Legio XX site. However, when I was shopping around for horse hair, I was told that it is difficult to dye.

I would second the use of Rit Dyes for white/off white hair. We source our hair from instrument bow making suppliers. The finer the quality of hair, the better the dying is. One pack of dye for each 500g of hair seems to work really well. The RIT "Scarlet" is the best red for horsehair. It only takes 20 -30 minutes in hot water.

If you are using hair which is 'off the flesh', then I would avise washing it before dying takes place.

The hair will dry with a natural reversion to a slightly kinked appearance. This can be steamed out.
