....and boot embellishments and a sash. My Musketeer costume is crawling along,
slowly but surely. I lugged Tedros outside to take a photo to show where I'm at.......

The brown boots themselves will not be part of the costume.

As much as I keep complaining about his size, Tedros does have a very nice body. The EID dolls have much more realistic proportions, unlike my smaller JIDs which have way more 'doll-like' proportions.
Speaking of great-looking EIDs, Iplehouse released the newest character in their Carved Heritage series today - Lawrence. What a great character, and I just love, love, LOVE his costumes! Both of them. Good thing I don't want any more of the bigger dolls, or I'd be sorely tempted. But I can always go look at all the great photos. I wish IH would make JIDs that looked like some of these larger guys. I also wish we could order the weapons separately, as I'd love the rapier and the matchlock gun for my Tedros when he eventually gets a Musketeer outfit of his own.
Next thing to tackle is the shirt. It will have lace-edged collar and sleeve cuffs. I haven't decided if I want to make the sleeve cuffs separate. It certainly would be a lot easier to put his doublet on if the cuffs were separate. But then, with the cuffs attached to the sleeves, it would keep the shirt sleeves from bunching up inside the doublet sleeves. I just think the shirt itself would be more useful without the lace-edged cuffs. So, which way to go?
