Thanks Dave, I have a second belt for my later pricipate representation, but from what I've read on RAT the 2 belt system didn't come in until Augustus, and as I'm doing the period just before that, I was going to try out 1 apronless belt. I know that plates arn't accurate, but I wanted to expriement with something I had before ruining good custom plates. The single belt pattern i found in Osprey Roman Legionary 50BC-100AD (dates are a guess from my memory), on one of the plates of a legionary from Leg I Antiqua.
Once the friggin sun manages to come out again, its been like 3 days with no sun, i will try to sun tan the belt. I kinda like the olive oil, it makes the belt smell like a good salad.
