tbf, the swords could be extremely variable. I remember one incident wherein a Celtic tribe’s swords bent after some hard fighting and they had to have their comrades cover them while they tried to straighten them back out to a semi-fight-worthy condition.

Also, while blue paint was Briton, according to Caesar, tattooing and war paint more generally are attested to in literary sources (though not uncontroversially) amongst other Celtic peoples.
