Similar 'shapes' compared to readable 'shapes' could work? Or just draft and fudge what looks way wonky.

Below the blouse and another jacket from relics file. Might help with fraction recognition. Battledress suits in photos always look like roomy barn clothes.

MTOCv3, maybe...

Hope nobody recoils on old war items when we've so many real-time atrocities ongoing covered in HD. I now know why a few friends used to wake up screaming.

LeiaOrgana2087,

Quote from: Schneiderfrei on May 25, 2025, 03:02:49 PMYours is good enough to go on with. I don't see any indecipherables.

Edit: Actually it's a lot harder than I thought. The discernability of the fractions is poor.

Lets keep looking.

Glancing over it, "Erastus Piggott (ltd) on 39 Gutter Lane in Cheapside, London EC2" blew my tweeter!

Quote from: Schneiderfrei on March 01, 2025, 10:32:35 AMI would like to request that, if possible, could you share some of the trouser drafts. Please  ;D




Here's what I saved in my old drive. Sorry late reply, uni life got me busy

Backup just in case PostIMG gets a stroke





Maybe Partizanos might have a higher quality copy of the trousers pattern in the book. On top of possible construction guides like the Battledress itself.

Thank you so much LeiaOrgana2187!

Quote from: Hendrick on May 25, 2025, 07:33:31 AMI've seen a photo of marshall Montgomery in one of these...

And it takes me right back to "The Rat Patrol" 1960 something. The 'English' soldier was was almost certainly wearing army surplus anyway.

I'm definitely going to play with this.
