Thank you for all the kind replies!
Aemilianus, MARCvSVIBIvSMAvRINvS and Gaius Julius Caesar: The shoes are closer to carabatina, since I have put him in greaves. Gaius wins!
But I like the idea of boots and may change the sculpture.
What do you think of removing the greaves and just having boots?
I have found this photo of a statue of Augustus near Trajan's Forum in Rome. Would these boots work? Hmmmm?

Alexand96: Thanks for those photos!! The are fantastic references!! They will help a great deal.
The breastplate on the sculpt is only 2.5 inches, so I can definately add more detail. What do you think of the ram motif. I couldn't find any reference to what his legion or personal symbol was. Any ideas?
Here is my Alexander, Alexander
