Ave Y'all,
I know Dr. Travis Clark's website seemed to imply that the designs on the tongue pteruges might have been metal, but again, it might have been leather. I am in the process of making my subarmalis and I want it accurate. What do You all think I should do? If the majority is in favor of metal designs, then Antonia and I can cast them out of metal. If leather, then I can mold the leather. If metal, bronze, or Brass. (POT Metal is OUT! Period.! (Please note I am not criticizing any one else's work.) Since I will be spending big bucks on a work of art (Metal Musculata) I want to make sure that all of it matches the quality of the Musculata.
Any help, suggestions, or ideas will be seriously considered.
Salve, and Thank You,
Vitruvius ....
