Description
Made with iOS IbisPaint. Speed draw hereΒ youtu.be/eNa6QQ4f9dwA Seleucid cataphract based on a late Seleucid (or more probably early Parthian) statuette of an armoured figure in a helmet with possible mask. The greaves probably wouldn't have been worn with boots.

Well, nobody can say for sure, of course, but think it like this: I live in Greece and during the late spring and summer months, being inside your car while it is stationed is pure agony. Especially if it's a car without air-condition. Now, wearing metal close to skin?
