Hello Paul
I can imagine getting hold of any good quality wool can be difficult, especially a piece that size. Otherwise I would have preferred myself to see the cloak a bit yellower. I see you too have adopted the hide the cuffs position :wink: but it looks like you have a very dark green tunic which although not inaccurate as I saw one only the other day, is not what I have come to expect in a military context. Then again not much would surprise me but If you have a genuine source for it and if the orbiculi on your cloak is based on a real design I would be very pleased if you could pass them on. Mike Bishop would also have you remove your leg bindings!
