Great video Krzysztov!

[Trebski]

Thanks! It was fun - 2 freezing days of running around in tunics and stuff and sleeping in Roman tents with minus 15 C degrees at night. This year's exceptionally long winter caught us by surprise

[Robert Vermaat]

Brilliant movie!

Salvete Omnes!

This is my poor man's 3th c. AD impression, had to do it because of the new helmet ...

That was two vs. one, those SCA folks are tough.

Must have been fun, Evan, great pics! It seems that you have your tunic also now ...

[Flavivs Aetivs]

Yeah, and belt and stuff too.

I had to borrow a pair of pants and some Zwammerdam-type boots from Rusty, my shoes and pants weren't done yet. I also had to borrow a shield and spear from the barbarians, again mine weren't finished yet.

[Titus Manlius Verus]

I hate that I missed this. I'm definitely going to try to make the drive next year! Great pics!

This photo (un-posed) was taken at the Roman Bacchanal weekend at the Renaissance Festival near Houston on 11-09-13. That is me on the left as a Legate and an unknown man and wife on the right in Roman garb.

Nice. We dont have a roman weekend at our ren faire in ohio. but it give me an excuse to were my knights armour about for the weekend!

[PhilusEstilius]

They are great pictures Evan and looking at the centurian it is nice to see my phalerae types on show there.

I thought this was worth a post. Matt Amt, Legion 20 and one of the founders of North American Roman Reenactment showing off his Baldenheim (I've seen this in person, hand made using stuff he found in the dumpster.)

EDIT: Pic aint working, one sec

Wow Evan, that is awesome indeed! If I remember correctly, Matt made also a great steel Burgh Castle- style helmet himself some time ago.

[Flavivs Aetivs]

Yeah I've seen that, it's really nice.

To do something like this is surprisingly easy, its just time consuming and takes a good but of know-how with the material.

I'm more of the "He can make it and I'll buy it from him" type.

I am however making my own Shield and I made my own Belt.
