BTW: this is Damianus with my ex-girlfriend on his head Remarks by Philip on the Athenian Leaders: Philip said that the Athenians were like the bust of Hermes: all mouth and dick.

Here is my latest impression. Now I have shoes, cloak, new hat (lamb-skin) and a Lituus :wink: ...
Unfortunately my Fibula slipped from my left shoulder to the middle....

Which era greaves, have you seen the new ones Peronis is offering from Daniyell? Brass and iron! A must have buddy!
I deff want them for a 180ad impression...and they are good for later!

Yes Byron, I am well aware of the greaves Peronis is offering :wink: ! I have also a Deepeeka Niederbieber helmet which will make my impression a more late third centurish...

Are they not just a little on the small side Jim? I thought i saw a picture of a group, with one of these dished ones, it looked smaller than the other scuta.

I've no idea, Byron, but Jorge can be contacted by email. What I like is they seem to be made of planked construction.

Yes, that is what my Republican scutum is constructed like. The edging could be a little more solid, and the boss...but anyway, yes they are made in the strip layered fashion!

Quote:Thanks Byron ! I still need a shield, a spatha & greaves...Greaves are easy, shields are also in good supply. There Armilium, as Jim pointed out, and Fabrica Augustana. I would think very very long before buying a spatha. I bought mine way to soon.
