My latest project – Lorica Segmentata
Posted: May 17, 2013 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a commentI am now in the process of making my own Lorica Segmentata armour. Naturally this armour was for Roman Men, however I am making it to fit me. Its steel armour with brass hinges.
At the moment I have cut up all my piece, polished it all and have drilled the holes for riveting.
Here are some pictures of how my work is going
