The cutest Roman Centurion

Daisy and I have been having toy withdrawal, so we started collecting Playmobile toys. They have a whole Roman themed line, which are surprisingly accurate! We even learned a thing or two from their depiction of a Roman Aquilifer!

Dorkus Maximus


All around the Coliseum (aka the Flavian Ampitheatre, which Daisy likes to refer to as the "Flava-Flavian Ampitheatre), there are these guys dressed up like Roman Legionnaires. I find this funny, as a history nerd, since this isn't what gladiators looked like at all.

This guy in particular stood out to me with his headband, cut off sweatpants and t-shirt underneath his costume. I found him too funny not to draw! (The cigarette was added for dramatic effect)
