There are not many surviving republican scuta artifacts that I know of and very few sculptures show much detail as to their decoration. I don't think you have much to worry about, as long as you do not romanticize it too much you should be in the clear.
Your project sounds very interesting and I am looking forward to seeing the final product! Hannibal is amongst my favorite historical figures so anything about the 2nd Punic War is eagerly welcomed. Good luck!
