Looking good @ARNC
The scuffs will look more faded and natural with time

[ARNC]

Thanks @weftyarn, that’s good to hear (always good to get guidance from Oberststallmeister Emil)!

Oberststallmeister Emil!

Love it

[Tago Mago]

@weftyarn you might want to get in touch with @jordanscollected. Maybe you can send some of his fancy food supplememts @ARNC' s way

[ARNC]

The horse got quite fulsome compliments from two random people when I was on a mission to collect something I had ordered (more on that tomorrow ). It never happens when I wear anything else so I guess I’ll have to accept the horse looks better than I do

[Giles]

Often does......

@flannel-slut that is a stellar shirt & jacket combo! Congrats sir!
Is that the IHSH-235? Envious peeps would like to know…

[tody]

@motojobobo see over in the dyeing clothes thread, he overdyed it!

[motojobobo]

Ahhhh…thanks @tody

[flannel slut]

@motojobobo thanks moto

@flannel-slut yeah that DIY emerald green is so nice! I really want a burgundy Serge shirt, but wouldn't wanna overdye my cherished grey one...

[flannel slut]

@T4920 thanks man. And a burgundy serge would look daaamn good but will say the dye was a little resistant to penetrating the serge material which might be why I have some streaking. Going from a light grey to a burgundy may create too much contrast if the dye does not take uniformly. Then again, it could have more of a tie dye effect and look sick… don’t mind me. Thinking out loud at this point.

Serge is such a great fabric it really does look good in most colours. A brick red/burgundy is not a bad shout at all, perhaps a navy or indigo would be cool too. Then a CPO, with copper snaps and.... to the "samples and things we should make" thread, I go

[Tago Mago]

@AdamJ if only you knew someone who makes and sells clothes

[ARNC]

To make @Tago-Mago perhaps feel a bit better, I discovered tonight that this horse bites!

[Tago Mago]

@ARNC I take no pleasure from your pain

[Mister_Brue]

@ARNC What have you been up to?

[ARNC]

@Mister_Brue my own stupid fault. There are a few sets of steps linking streets where I live. I missed a step in the dark, instinctively pulled my hand out of my pocket for balance and got eaten by the zip!

[tody]

Ouch!
