Width and sizes for Scutum - Ab Aeterno - 03-09-2014
Hi all!
For a university course, I have been undertaking replicating the scutum boss found in the mouth of r. Tyne, and have decided to recreate an entire scutum around it. So far I only have a blank, but I feel the size is a bit wrong. It measures 96cm x 72cm (around 38" x 28"). Is this a bit too wide? Should I cut it down a bit more?
Thanks!
Mike

Is this measured around the curve? I would think it will be perfect. Mine are even slightly bigger
