I'll be uploading various pics of the boys in blue over the next few weeks. Comments would be appreciated (Especially technical advice Tarbi).
First up a composite from what would have been the illustrations for a book on Mons Graupius which now seems to have ben abandoned.

Thanks very much, and as you insist here are a few more to whet your appetite.
First is a rather vicious thug who you should all recognise

here though he get's his comeupance
http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z82/ ... morte1.jpg
http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z82/ ... ians1a.jpg
is a collection of other Batavian psychotics that you all know and love. Dead Celt provided by Dead Celts R'Us.
On a more Cerebral and respectable note here is my impression of Kenneth Cranham as Pompey Magnus from the series Rome

Whilst to finish on a purely monetary note Byron wonders what helmet to spend his next month's pay check on
http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z82/ ... Byron1.jpg
and Peronis looks for inspiration as to what to sell him :twisted:

I have a collection of portraits I've been reworking but am waiting for permission from the subjects to post them. More soon.

Salve Martin,
I have a few shots of you at Corbridge but you're too distant to make out specifically - I haven't forgotton to send you the CD but will do so when this reworking project is complete.
In the meantime I did find this one from the "Curry night" so I've given it the treatment. 8)

@ Nerva!
That look says "but we ordered over three hours ago! Come clean, you ate the curries and never said anything......" :lol:

Some more added
http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z82/ ... kriese.jpg
is another from Kalkriese this time in 2003 where the RMRS and IInd Augusta went in with Sharps drawn much to the horror of the Cherusci waiting to ambush us. Well what did they expect?
http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z82/ ... erusci.jpg
Unfortunately the IInd Avg didn't take full advantage of our technological supperiority and this was the result

and
http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z82/ ... tser1a.jpg
are from our visit to the recreated iron age village at Butser in southern England. An amazing site where Celer met his match with the local ferrets. :twisted:
