Late roman tunic try - leonardo - 10-14-2014
Late roman tunics are sucha fascinating subject.
But accurate decoration is always a problem.
I tried embroidered panels and clavii using this one as an inspiration

The handwork was made by Andy di Francesco, a local artisan who is working very efficiently. Execution is her responsability, the bold decisions are mine. She should be not to be blamed for them.
The idea was to keep the general style of the original one but simplified. I hope it is not a caricature.
The base tunic closely follows extant patterns and in itself is work of another artisan: Evangelina Ledesma. Andy made the embroidery in red , Green and yellow wool.
Tunic is linen,
This post is totally intended to read your critics.

looks nice though, how much time it took to be finished?
if you compare I with the original the original is better but your idea is not bad at all

I would say it will do perfectly. It's always good to NOT have everyone walking in the same 'standard' tunics.
