What an awesome group! Late Republican era :grin:

Congratulations, Dany. Your pteruges look very nice. I like that you and Rado wear Hellenistic helmets! Are you all portraying Antonian legionairies?

BTW, I'm only 1/3 through the video as I type. What a great show Smile

Question : Why does the Aquilifer wear a MACEDONIAN helmet ?

It looks Thracian to me. Maybe an Aquilifer could afford a fancier helmet :-)

Quote:Some of us may call this helmet Greek, but I personally prefer Hellenic stile of helmet as all non-greek nations which adopted Greek culture used similar or just the same models of helmets.

Yes. I've seen illustrations with Carthaginian troops wearing this type of helm too.

It reminds me of US doughboys wearing British style helmets in the First World War.

I agree - very impressive! I don't think I would feel very comfortable finding myself looking into that face!

Just one thing though - get rid of the Hollywood wrist bracers and you will look even better. :wink:
