Brilliant additions Jyrki!!

NOT! Auxilia palatina, at the least, or schola perhaps. For a dux you need a decorated sagum, I think. And a gilded torc! Wink

Auxilia Palatina and then some Wink ! Thanks Robert, I feel the pressure rising...


Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - Statius - 04-12-2012

Looking good, so what's next (apart from the pretty cloak decor of course) ;-)

Nice to see the Squamata finally arrived!


Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - Statius - 04-12-2012

Where did the Greaves come from, I've just got a plain Kunzig pair and notice yours appear to be beautifully embellished!

The shield is also a lovely item, your own artwork.

I can reccommend Claire Marshall if you wanted a decorated Sagum, exceptional quality of work!

Really excellent impression.


Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - Virilis - 04-12-2012

Thanks Marc!

In fact I have something coming from Claire! The greaves are Deepeeka's hippika gymnasia greaves with knee caps cut off...

Cool one! The colour combinations look really nice,especially in the snow, but I must admit I liked your old armour better, it was more unique...

Thanks Kai! In fact I would love to find a suitable lorica musculata to go with this impression...


Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - Scipio_Africanus - 04-12-2012

As what was said above, the colour combination works perfectly.
Your new stuff is really beautiful, and those photos are great !
Thanks for sharing them.

Hi Moi! The spatha (without the scabbard) is from pommel to the tip 89 cm...


Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - Vindex - 04-13-2012

Thank you.

PM on it's way to you (don't want to clutter this thread!)

I think it is time that RAT got the necessary permissions and published a calendar for 2013 and beyond. How many themes could be achieved? It could raise some revenue for upkeep of the site and organisations of RAT conferences? Or is it just too hard?

lovely work ladies and gents Big Grin
