@ Promotius :
Awesome kits, Promotius
Are you wearing greaves for your heavy infantry impression ?
It's a little hard to tell from the photos.
And is your round shield convex, flat ?
@ Sagittarii :
I hope someone takes photos of you riding in your kit, Rod.
A mounted horse archer is something I have yet to see :wink:
@ Greg :
You're on a good start for a soldier at the time of Christ. I, too, am
working on a similar impression : Coolus helmet, squamata, oval shield,
hasta (spear), gladius hispaniensis, and proper clothing. I just don't have
the gladius yet or proper boots. As for a shield I made my own flat and oval
shaped. It looks Hellenistic rather than Roman. I hope to see your impression
when it's more fully developed 8) Thanks for posting your photos, Greg.
