<giggle> I've put the pictures on the Tudor tailor list already. There will be a how-to along in a bit. T'warnt hard. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Tudor_Tailor_Reader/photos If you're a member, look for the photo album named Cin's gowns or somesuch. The supportasse is the 1st 2 pics in the album. I've since covered the neck edge, but you can still see the wire work and solder lines in these pics. No, I dont think the original was soldiered, I just thought it was easier for a novice wirebender. I also thought the lightweight tie-wires might snag my gown or ruff, so I went with a smoother solution.
I've been in love with this supportasse for sometime, ever since a friend brought back the Ghent Museum's costume catalog. When I saw the bigger pics in PoF4, well, Something had to be Done. BTW, I just discovered your Compendium. Lovely stuff and just enough bite-side info for teatime. --cin Cynthia Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Pictures, missy!
