I've just gotten my hands on some really fine 1st Corps Late Republican Romans. I figured that I'd try and paint them as close to realistic as it's possible to get. These are the colors I thought I'd use for the different parts (with a few remarks/questions thrown in for good measure):<br>
<br>
Helmet: Mostly Bronze with a few Iron (newer helmet types) is this too early?<br>
Feathers/Crest, Black feathers with yellow crests, red for Centurion/Optio, was this system in place at that time?<br>
Hamata: Medium Iron<br>
Pteruges: Dark Leather, White-ish for â€Â
