Title: Looking for Roman merchants
Post by: Prof.Witchheimer on February 02, 2012, 11:51:52 AM: Another request. Need ideas for Roman merchants or similar, just Roman guys looking rich and without arms.

I'm aware of this Crusader one (on the right side):

There is a photo of them set up around a Roman market. They maybe closer to 25mm but might be useful.

No references to "Arthur" movie, at least not conscious.

Btw, forests of South Germany.
