Re: Infamy Roman Cart colours

Thanks Robert,
?
I was going to go with a dull red, possibly with yellow framing. I just wondered if paint samples or mosaics gave any indications. Reproduction ones
tend to be left bare wood, which seems unlikely if you didn¡¯t want them rotting away.

All the best

?Google "painted carts of sicily".? While They probably weren't as intricate as those, I'll bet they were brightly painted if used by civilians. Military ones were probably painted just to deter weathering. You can never go wrong?with red!

Slightly offbeat one, I am looking for any suggestions on colours for the Roman passenger cart. I haven't come across any original depictions and wondered what they might have been painted.
Many thanks
Doug
