Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Crispvs - 11-13-2010
There used to be a chap in the RMRS who covered his tattoos with makeup. He had been shown how to do it by a professional makeup artist and used to do it very well, using six separate shades (I think) to build up a realistic skin tone. Most of the time it would have been impossible to tell there were tattoos underneath, but it did take him about half an hour to apply the makeup and on a hot day he sometimes found that some of it washed off thanks to sweating and the tattoos started to show through again.

Ive had it on before when doing some filming but it didnt really last , but I will try it again . I know the vambraces are wrong but need to hide these from the kids you see .
Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - RomeBuff - 11-14-2010
This may sound silly,
Many Bridal shops here in the U.S. carry this very thing.
DAVIDS BRIDAL, a national chain, has it. I saw some just yesterday, in fact. Not sure of the price.
I think they have a web presence for those in other countries.
Hope this helps.
Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - M. Demetrius - 11-14-2010
True. I'd forgotten about that. My daughter was a bride's maid in a wedding and had to cover some tats on her forearm and back. (If she'd asked me, there wouldn't be any there, but she was out of the house by then, so -- ) Besides, Paul, visiting a bridal shoppe...bride's maids aren't always married, y'know? Might find a match there (if you don't already have one, that is) :wink: :!:
Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Julius Verax - 11-14-2010
Cheers lads, I will try my local shop.

This is my impression of a Roman "CORNHOLIVS TIPIVS NICARAGVANVS", the pic was made in a school´s shower room on the free day during our march in september. Enjoy!
Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - Virilis - 11-16-2010
Christian, you really drink too much beer :wink: ...
Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - caiusbeerquitius - 11-16-2010
No, just had coffee. Lots of coffee...
Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - jvrjenivs - 11-16-2010
and he did certainly not drink much beer there. We did drink much wine, though
Anyway, great impression, Christian. It was a great week, indeed!
Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - caiusbeerquitius - 11-16-2010
Yes! It was so cool that you were there :-) )
Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - caiusbeerquitius - 11-22-2010
Me, during our march
Re: Show here your roman soldier impression - M. Demetrius - 11-22-2010
Nice pilum and scutum. Good impression of a soldier on the march, IMO.
