Went through some of my older pictures, and I can sort of map out how my impression has evolved...anyone else have pics from "then and now"?

Excellent idea Matt. I only wish I had been into this long enough to have pictures to compare to, let along have a completed kit...

And I give you something to laugh now, starting with early summer 2006, late summer 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010. Unfortunately I don't know how to put all pix in a nice file like Robert and Magnus have done it :-(

What do you mean, laugh? You look great! Rapid progress in such a short time.

Easy!

I'll gladly do that for anyone who provides me with 6 images. It costs me about 7 minutes to do, or less.

Started as 3rd century, moved into the 4th century, took a 1 year break, then jumped back into the 3rd century, with extra oomph... Smile

Given the spectacular ignorance that prevailed generally in re-enactment when I started (1981), it is too horrible to contemplate!

Yeah, I went from Optio to Centurion...I'm on the fast track for being promoted, but centurion is as high as I'll go.

Great pictures everyone!

Join the Specularii. Help overthrow current Emperor. Scheme and plot. Cultivate informants. Get the dirt on eveyone. You will be a Tribune in no time. Probably have to do mid-second cetury impression, but what the hell... it's an excuse for more armor.

Impressive impressions Paul!

I didn't include my forays into iron-age Britain WinkThats less of an evolution, more of a jump...
