Did not know about Godsmack. I would assume that is where the person got it. Like I said, I wasn't too set on it per se, just a sunburst. I will probably use the standard design in the finished aspis. My wife is the one set on it anyways. I am just trying to make the design bareable to my eyes since it will sit in my office. Thanks for the information though.
I will probably start researching it more heavily before I make it in about 1 1/2 months. I still have to finish the greaves and then make the linothorax before I start a second aspis. I am definately going to use the overall layout, but will probably end up changing colors and possibly the rim design before it is all over. I usually settle on a second or third design in my process. This is just a starting point.
Got the 16 yards of linen today. I will start the thorax in a couple of weeks. I already made the 2 lower templates for the body and pteryges, but I still need to make a template for the shoulder section. I got it right the first attempt because I still have all my measurements for the cuirass I just did.
