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

Thanks Theo and others!
The bearskin is not mine, but belongs to Cordvs from Corbvlo. I hope to have my own berpelt this weekend or next week.
A wooden block was attached inside the headskin of the bear. To the underside of this piece of wood a metal pin is attached that goes through the crestholder of the helmet (gallic type). I will do the same to my skin when it arrives. The system works very well.
I will post a seperate thread to explain a bit about the subarmalis and pteryges. I made this myself, yes.
The hamata has 6mm punched and rivetted rings.
The tunic tends to creep up a little after a while. I often experience this when wearing a hamata.
Valete,
Jef
The vexillum was painted by Bernard Van Daele, he takes on the role of centurio in my group. [/quote]

A short little movie of our excursion to Woerden.
The Castellum of Woerden was excavated and incorporated in the underground parking. That's the reason why we're marching there
