    Many thanks guys its always nice to get great feedback but im also open to any critisism, if anyone knows owt about the Ancient Greeks and i go wrong somewhere please speak up, its not my era really and i just get my info from the web.

    So moving onto the shield, basically so i could get away from the manotony of doing the leather tassley bits. Big round shield, this goes from the shoulder to the knee, and made from bronze, so i should imagine you have to be built like Gerard Butler to lift it. It was also domed so i had to make a former to fit the putty round to bake it, and it came out ok. Gone for a Rams skull on the front, most of these were painted but i have seen some with raised decoration

    there is still the arm strap and the hand grip to add but ill do that when i do the hands and arms
