Hi Valerius,<br>
<br>
I'm having Jean Olivier Bourbon make the scuta. I believe you were the one who recommended him to me . I couldn't really find anyone else who would make one.<br>
<br>
I'll have him paint the chi-ro symbol on the shield face, since I don't much care for the designs in the <em>Notitia Dignitatum</em> (they just remind me too much of Viking shields). Anyway, I believe the chi-ro must have been the most wide-spread and long lasting shield design of the 4th century since Constantine's dynasty lasted for quite a while.<br>
<br>
Thank you, everyone, for your advice and support.<br>
<br>
Valete.<br>
