    And here it is! It's a little hard to tell, but he pushes the blade in (it takes some work), twists in, and then extracts it. Messy!

    He shouldn't raise his shield like that. There is sculptural as well as practical (re-enactment) evidence that the Scutum was held low to protect the legs, since the shoulders were already double armoured. In point of fact he should move his shield as little as possible.

    His trailing leg looks a little elongated to me.

    It's kinda hard not to move his shield when he steps forward to stab, I think it looks great.

    And he's not raising his shield by the way, he lowers his body because he spreads his legs when he steps forward to stab.

    I can't help but look at that vanilla animation and imagine the guy yelling each time, as he's making the stab, "Face stab!!" "Oh yeah! Face stab!!"
