In historical miniatures, especially from the ancient period, they often suffer from excessive simplicity, and the miniatures end up looking too uniform, when in fact it’s a period that, due to the handcrafted nature of garments, should be rich in details.

In the Viking range, we are doing a lot of research on how cloaks could be fastened and the different ways belts were used, in order to give even the simplest miniatures, like the militia, interesting details to paint and a certain uniqueness

You guys are amazing. Thank you for bringing these sculpts into existence. The research based detail is fantastic. I really hope you complete the post-Roman / pre-Norman Britain line.

Nice to hear you’re doing that much research. I‘m doing museal recreation since 10 years especially for the Viking age. Cloaks worn tight around the upper body are very common indeed. That usage of three belts honestly isn’t… You normally find several buckles only in that case. When one is worn as a shoulderbelt for the sword-sheath… I‘m very curious how they will turn out finally
