"Looks great! But aren´t your baldrics and sword(s) a bit "old" for the helmets, belts and tunics?"
Well spotted- the baldric and sword are earlier. I am getting the Late kit together kit bit by bit- Saturday was finishing the tinning of the belt parts , staining and oiling the leather and rivetting it all together. Before that the Burgh helmet (made by Peronis with a silver chi rho added by me based on these finds)http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd28/...ograms.jpg and the tunic.
So for the moment, wearing grandfather's spatha and baldric...! All tips and suggestions very welcome!
