Myself as civilian roman slinger

a photo of myself with my impression of how a civilian roman slinger (hunting, defense against beasts) should have looked like in Raetia (current south of Germany) in the 1st/2nd century A.D..

zwiebeltuete,

that looks great!  Cheesy Must have been much work on the clothes. Do you wear trousers? It loks like beeing wrapped around the legs.
