before i buy such a thing i would like to know wether it is possible or not...

Without the cheek pieces and with the engraving all the originals had, I would say yes. But Republican only.

i am still trying to figure out wether or not the Autun helmet could be used too!

I'm planning to use such a helmet for a tribune impression too.... They appear in sculptural sources don't they (worn by officers)?

Jef, interestingly, this could be a potential candidate, maybe?

HAT miniatures have something similar worn by a tribune in one of their Punic War sets, which gives an idea of how it could look.

Was used by the triarii as well, from what I gather? Correct me if I am wrong. The etruco-corinthian that is.
I saw that one you mention the other day on that post, Tarbicus, and was thinking the same thing.

Manning will attempt things others won't, so I give him credit for the effort.

The alexander the great helmet made by Deepeeka looks a bit like it... I wonder if they make it in brass... Or would iron also be an option?
