I reckon a brass neidermormter would look great with that impression too, Jyrki! But then that is what I would do!

Looking cool!!!!!

BTW, if that's a poor tunic, I can't imagine how elaborate your idea of a rich one would be!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Jyrki your 'poor tunic' looks much, much better than the other one with those wide baggy sleeves.

Graham.

Yes Graham, you`re propably right! The "tunic" under my mail shirt is a thick old cotton one, which is more comfortable under the mail without a gambeson/subarmalis...

Nobody seems to have noticed that
a) either these pictures are mirrored, or
b) they are fighting with the gladius in their left hand.... Big Grin

I noticed, but I didn´t think it´s worth mentioning. Smile P


Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Titus Martius - 03-25-2007

Well, you are right...they are fighting with scutum in their right hands :oops: ...but it's easy to fix it. :lol:


Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Gaius Julius Caesar - 03-25-2007

What ever happened to the good old poky-poky technique? :roll:
