Yeah, great job, Dan!
The helmet is indeed very clever, and I noticed you even made a focale scarf for your neck! Great!
Where did you come up with your Roman name?

Dan, can you please resize your avatar?
It's so big it messes up the forum layout :wink:

Don't know, but that one he has now is 279x319 pixels.
Your avatar for example is 116x143.

To stop this from becoming the avatar size thread, here's another picture.

Salve Caesarion,
Let’s see more of your shield and hear about how you made it! It looks like you even added an boss too! Way to pay attention to detail!
Honestly though, if you tell me you covered it in leather or linen, you're getting another laudes from me! :wink:
Oh, and CONGRATS on your best new member medal! Too cool... 8)
Vale!

I made the shield out of a rectangular piece of cardboard and spraypainted it red, and duckt taped a silver piece of cardboard on.

Hi Aitor,
I very much liked how you guys did that school project! Can you give me some details of the spears and shields? What material, dimensions, costs per shield?
