But Ancient Germans did use many different coloured weaves. So Knock yourself out and if you Need to know what colours are dyeable (not sure that is actually a word) just ask as I have done enough dark age re-enactment to know what and how to dye different colours. Or don not ask and retain some sanity!Clinthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02351729764098750618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430216265579762068.post-38052630630792191112016-09-07T08:04:29.042-07:002016-09-07T08:04:29.042-07:00Wonderful work once again Clint.

Can't say I've seen any fancy thread work on those type of clothes though, so probably not. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430216265579762068.post-64369330037700173782016-09-07T07:27:25.792-07:002016-09-07T07:27:25.792-07:00No worries Roy I guessed that is who you meant and...No worries Roy I guessed that is who you meant and enlarged the photo and was not happy with the painting when I did so. <br /><br />I think we both may have misinterpreted our replies. I got all self conscious of the painting when enlarged! <br /><br />Onm a side note I am NOW finding the colour choices difficult. I do not want to repeat too many colours and give them any form of uniformity But I suspect that may happen anyway. <br /><br />I Blame myself for moving of topic and making you feel as if you had done something wrong.

It seems what I meant got lost in translation - I meant I liked the sculpt with its scarf-thing hanging down from its shoulders, which you've painted pink. I didn't know what to call the item of clothing so I called it a lazily worn cravat (as it should be tied, or something). As to the pink, I really like the colour, especially in the combination of the mustardy colour you've used for the top the figures wearing. <br />Apologies for any confusion.
