Ah, yeah the Sisak Helmet.

The one in the painting you showed was a Theilenholfen Helmet (Armamentaria has an exclusive deal selling them).

Cool stuff.

yeah the paintig was just the general direction i wanted to go

the goal of this project is for me to reenact an auxiliary infatryman of the 9.batavian cohort

this unit in particular because it was redeployed ner me in passau (castra batavis) after their time in vindolanda

the pictures are not quite showing the actual state of things, i did some additional painting on the shield, reworked the hilt of my gladius, and i am going to get some decent feminalia (the pants on the photos are original for my birka viking reenactment Wink )

Eight of us at an event in Germany last summer. Foam sword larp, thus the silly shields.

At a combat event a few years ago. I think it was about 15 degrees below zero, thus modern pants and mittens along with the proper gear.

Very nice, Martin! I have been thinking about mittens & other winter gear. Btw, the scutums have a very vivid colouring Wink!

The shields remind me of a painting in John Warry's book: Warfare in the Classical World.

The shields are built more for combat than historical accuracy, so we have taken a few shortcuts. They are plywood covered in linen, with rawhide edgings, so they won't notch blades so much, and the paint is regualr oil paint for house walls and such.

Also, most of the helmets on display are bodged together from old army helmets, and as such quite far from historical. Pretty damned solid though!
