Show here your Sarmatian warrior impression
#32
You're welcome, Artames

There are same great Celtic and Germanic impressions on the other "Show Your" threads here on RAT, but this thread is fairly recent and designed to create more interest in the Eastern elements that opposed and oft joined the Roman army.

My own kit has taken time to gather, and it's not yet complete. My helmet, although an old style of pot like the Sofia example, turned out looking a little too "Avarish." I'm trying to convince Greg Kulig to make a true Roxolani version for me, just like the ones pictured on Trajan's Column. Greg also lives in Poland and he makes armor for museums, one of the finest craftsmen we have today. (see Thorkil Armourer website) The helmet will cost me a fortune but will be accurate.

Perceived "accuracy" is contentious, as you may have noticed in above posts from other RAT friends. But we all do the best we can with limited resources. The important point is to make an effort. Otherwise we can never have the wondrous variety that found its way into so much that became "Roman." :grin:
