Is this the image you had in mind?

I'm looking at this and thinking it might just be a pair of hoplites. What I originally thought was a sling for the shield is probably the sling for the sword. The Thureos in the back might just be an aspis drawn with odd perspective. Is there an analysis of this somewhere that points out features I'm missing? What do you think?
