MyMiniMod: Tarantine Cavalry Reskin

Description
this is my first mod. A little proof of my new skills. As the name says, I've modified just the Tarantine Cavalry.
It isn't much, but I hope it is the first step of a long journey.

I owe a big thanks to Sebidee for is tutorial.

29/08/2018: total rework of the unit with some new model fron WoS and RotR.

@Rory there is no indication that Praetorian Guard would have normally worn their palace armor while on frontlines; the Column of Marcus Aurelius shows Praetorians with their distinctive helmets on the frontline, but they are wearing lorica segmentata; only one Praetorian - identifiable as an officer by the sash over his armor - is shown wearing a muscle cuirass chest piece.

Praetorian Guard were drawn from legions, and using standardized legion armor would have come naturally from them if situation so required - looking the part doesn't help you to against enemy blows and arrows on the frontlines.

There is a square shield like in the picture in the data package, i'm sure

@vonVince Praetorians are reported to have worn silver-plated bronze chest pieces while they were on duty. Whether or not they would wear them in battle is another thing. I would guess that if they were pushed into battle like with Galba, they would probably have just used their ceremonial chest armour unless there was spare chainmail/segmentata. I really do doubt that the Praetorian Guard would have worn legionary armor regularly though, they were meant to be the best of the best and so would have looked the part.

Great works; you need to do more historically accurate reskins akin to this. What I really want to see is historically accurate Praetorian Guard reskin (remove those capes! - no Praetorian Guard reskin so far has removed the capes - it is very unlikely that Praetorian Guard would have normally worn capes when entering battle; their appearance would have been similar to other legionaries with the exception of their distinctive helmets).

Well done. Love reskins that are based on historical evidence. I hope to see more reskins like this one from you!

Good job! And good to see another one, who is caring about historical accuracy!

Nicely modelled and well researched!
