You could start by exchanging those swords for a shield and spear. Hardly any real warriors in history used dual swords except I think some Indonesians or Cambodians or something

illyrian* sorry

But my point is there wasn't just one helm being used during any era and its annoying seeing it shown like that.

That's not a figure of Spartan, but a figure of a caricature of Spartan.

Absolutely disgusting.

>>1065314
take off his shoes and armor, grease his hair, give him a shield and a spear, make the sword much smaller (spartans were proud of using small swords and still whooping everyone's ass with it), give him some flashy clothes to intimidate his enemies and make sure at least 12 other dudes fucked his bald wife

Why did they think it was more necessary to cover shins than it was to cover thighs?

>>1065430
"'ello señor would you trade that tarp for some pit bull puppies"

>>1065389
They're not reliable at all, anon.

>>1065468
Spartan arms were state-issued.

THey used one type, and it ended up being the pylos.

>>1065458
Is actually accurate.
>>1068417
You crouch a bit when fighting. His thighs would be protected by the shield.

>>1067344
See that cloth under the shield? It's to deflect arrows going at the legs.
Maybe in the crush of battle it's hard to poke someone in the thigh.

Well also the armor could be much longer to cover part of the thighs. The shield would cover from the helmet to the greaves

Since you got multiple heads try shaving off his mustache. Spartans had long hair and beards with no mustache

Give him an armor for god's sake and get rid of the sword

>>1069676
Bruh they used swords

>>1070818
Yeah but I doubt they dual wielded as much as these figures suggest. It's a backup weapon.

>>1071019
Yeah but they still used swords
