Hey Roman Armory,
The names Eddie, im US Army stationed in TX and I am looking for a new hobby. This whole leather working thing seems fun, and im kind of a gladiator nut. After going to this last renn fair I noticed a lack of leather armors, mainly cheap costumes and metal. Being the gladiator fan that I am, I am a huge Spartacus Blood and Sand fan. I was wondering first off if there are any patterns on here for the armor Spartacus wears in the ludus? Or something very similar. Also here in TX leather is fairly cheap, what kind of leather should I be buying for a project like this? I want the most authentic look possible of course.
Thanks!
Eddie
