Wonderful reproduction but what color would the originals have been, red or white? (Ducks and runs!) Big Grin
Juan Santell, no Roman name yet. Picking a name is very important and something that should not be done hastily or without much thought.

What about little eagles printed all over them- or busts of the Emperor? Big Grin

Linen is definitely the good choice- wool would be no fun at all...
See FABRICA ROMANORVM Recreations in the Marketplace for custom helmets, armour, swords and more!

Make them in white, print the eagles in red, and the war is over, no?

Or maybe with one strip down the middle... something in a burnt sienna perhaps...

Why not?
Great job! Joke all you want, at least you have something to talk inteligently about when the wind blows your tunica up.

Ave Hibernicus:

For what amount of denarii do you intend to sell your latest bit-o-creativity?
That line about "....burnt sienna" is just plain wrong....... Big Grin

Ave Hibernicus!

Aye, how much WILL you charge? Plain White, waist size 40", Cotton will do.

Another thought, Silk or Tricot in a variety of shades for that certain Domina..... (Dirty Old Man Laugh).
