I might put that together but the more I read about Roman the more I want to do the Roman side. Only real issue I have there is to find a custom sized Segmentata or Hamata. I have a 38 sized chest over a gambeson for my 13th century reenacting. My shoulders are also not the most wide. I'm worried if I order a Hamata the shoulder guards will be too wide for me and it wont fit properly. Last thing I wanna do is tailor maille again. Most hamatas i've seen are 50 inch chests and 32 inches long. I am 5 ft 9 at 120 pounds so most of this stuff would be quite big on my smaller frame.
I know where to get the padded subarmalis off of KOA and shoes and tunic off of SOTW. I am a little stuck on what belt to get though as they all look rather similarly priced and looks wise. I plan to use thorsburg trousers with my tunic and stuff as I hate having bare legs. I already have a Gallic A type helm I got my eyes on which is made of tinned bronze. Bit expensive but it looks big enough to fit my rather larger head. Shoes wise I may just go for the ones on SOTW as well as the tunic there. Gladius wise I am saving up for a better quality one from Mark Morrow, if not I may have to cut corners and get the Deepeeka Mainz. Shield wise just gonna have someone else help me with that cause ordering one of those would cost a lot to ship so making it's probably the better option.
I had no clue where to post this as this is the first time I've been here so, if you need to move this topic go ahead and do it.
