Nice MOC, but I think the columns should be rounded instead of squarish.

Awesome. I really like the way you did the Roman shields, with the two by four flats. The knocked down pillar, very realistic. One thing though, the barbarians seem pretty well armored and equiped for barbarians. Still, really great.

Actually, those are the only Lego helmets that bear any resemblence to Roman helms. Many people have used them as such. If you want examples I would be more than happy to post them. Sure, they aren't accurate, but they do work. Also the piece you pointed out isn't Roman either...its Greek. But if you want to talk customs, this helmet by Recluce is a great example of a Roman helmet.

Build On,

Yeah,I totally agree with you...
DM's helmets are the closest ones to Romans'...
But the helmet I linked IS Roman... the Greeks and Romans had the almost same helmets... you could use that helmet for Roman without any doubt... I would...
