No, this was Mel Gibson's idea for the movie 'Braveheart'. The Romans called the Picts (from what is now Scotland) the 'Caledonians'. They, the Picts, were known as the 'painted ones' by the Romans. Stirling Bridge NOT Sterling.
No, at least not all of them painted their bodies. The blue paint or "woad" was used by some of the Britons according to Julius Caesar. However there is no record of the continental Celts putting on makeup for battle.
its called "hollywood nonsense".Blue body painting was worn by the ancient scots... more than 1000 years before Wallace was born.However, it is commonly called woad, an indigo-blue dye made from the leaves of woad plants (Isatis tinctoria).It should be noted that woad dye does not work very well as a paint, and it is uncertain exactly what material the Roman accounts of the Pictii (literally meaning "painted") were referring to, when it came to their blue paint - or even if it was paint - it could have been a form of tatooing.
William Wallace was a great soldier who lead scottland to freedom but died befor he could see it he killed over 200 men and his storie will forever be told. he was atually a freedom fighter whos campaign started after his wife was murdered. he did win a significant battle at stirling bridge but it was robert the bruce who won freedom for scotland.
Daniel Morgan did not paint "The Battle of Saratoga"; rather, he was a prominent American general during the Revolutionary War, known for his leadership in the Saratoga campaign. The painting itself, created by John Trumbull, commemorates the turning point of the war, highlighting the American victory and its significance in securing French support. Trumbull aimed to capture the bravery and strategic prowess displayed during the battle, which played a crucial role in the fight for American independence.
Because they thought it made them look fierce and they thought it would scare off the people they were fighting.the paint also doesnt just mean to make the look fierce, actually different native American tribes used different colors and symbols. the colors signify different meanings or clans. alot of it varies. it wouldn't much scare off other people its more of a meaning, yea there going to war!War paint is for identification. War paint is like their uniform. When you are in a war you have to be able to identify who is on your side.

Sterling Silver is a metal, therefore you can apply paint. Silver Jewerly is usually polished, and you must give the paint some tooth to grab hold of, (rough the area with fine sandpaper, 400 or 500 grit) also consider a metal primer, depending on the kind of paint you use. (I recommend a quality enamel paint)
