Magnificent, Jef. 8)
The size of the hamata rings look nice and small, (6mm ?). VERY refreshing to see.
I agree with Renius about the pteryges. They look like fabric yet also stiff and durable enough for battle use. I'd be very interested to know your method of construction (perhaps on another thread ?).
That happens to me all the time and I have no solution yet. What a PITA. But it's not really noticeable in your photo.
The only improvement you could make, as far as I can see, is to lower your tunic a bit so that it is visible beneath the waist pteryges. Or maybe raise the pteryges but that is probably much harder to do.
Is the vexillum your creation as well ? It's great work !
So this is your fourth Roman impression by my count
