Can't wait Jim!
We all know that the Romans had a love of color.
Me, I can't wait until I have a musculata with roses!
Actually, when you think about it EVERY warrior culture has an ornamental refined side.
The samurai and their silk prints,
Knights and chivalry,
18th C. powdered wigs!!
It's only the modern era where we think warriors are brutish, uncultured and dirty.
