Hi,
Thought it might be useful (with some trepidation) to put up a pic of the late Roman tunic from Christian laid out in the same way for Grahams and other feedback (gulp).
It IS very long, and even on a 6ft 3 bloke like me, I will have to put in a tuck at the waist (I got the XL version). But the work is superb (I think)
And my earlier wool one. I tried to model the shape of the clavii on the Kerch missorium, though the tapestry made griffin design (off ebay) is probably more 5th century than fourth. But I'm still very much learning here- the world of Late Roman tunics is complex......
As worn on the Comitatus Wall Walk
Cheers
Caballo
