Real Deal Spolas

[Creon01]

I have failed to mention in this thread, despite following it with interest since the beginning, that I consider this a very worthy attempt at a real deal spolas!
It may vary greatly from my approach with the alum tawed leather, but given our lack of hard facts and knowlege on the construction of these things, this is a very plausible alternative.
Very interesting to see how 2500 years later, two people based on the same primary sources, even the same painter as reference, can produce so different interpretations!

Can't wait to see it finished!

Well said! There's enough room for reasoned differences.
