Well we have a guy on the team who now draws the unit (for a lot of them, but not all) before it is given over to the modellers. Our sources range from reliefs and coins, to archaeology and the writings of ancient authors. We do refer to osprey, though we always keep a critical eye and use it only as a rough guide upon which we sketch our own findings, though now we have caractacos we use it less and less.

Well you can find images and the like on the internet, thats easy. Do you mean, do we use wikipedia or something similar? No we don't, wiki is notoriously unreliable. If you have access to JSTOR, then you can access online archives of suitable articles, which we do use. The internet is not to be trusted.
