I bought two, one with the leather adornments which will be kept original as film memorabilia, the other is plain (like the others pictured in this thread)and will be the one that I will heavily modify and customize for my personal panoply. Not too concerned about all the stains (one is covered on the back with fake blood :twisted: ) I do plan to dye/paint my personal lino a bit more white in colour.
M.VIB.M, are you saying that the two attachment points for the shoulder yokes as opposed to one, are found in period pottery images? Actually, I hope so I have no desire to change that feature if it isn't necessary.
Edit: Your referring to the shoulder yokes ending in the rounded points aren't you? Yes, that does appear in the monumental record, I am referring to the attachment points on the chest, all of the images that I have currently depict a single attachment at the center of the chest and not two separate points as seen on these. As I said though, I only have a few images, so I'm not sure.
