Excellent work.  The trim in particular came out very well.  It took me a moment to notice the patch on one of the pantaloons. Looks like Garrard's Tigers, right?
Now what is this whole life of mortals but a sort of comedy, in which the various actors, disguised by various costumes and masks, walk on and play each one his part, until the manager waves them off the stage?

Outstanding job! Especially the trim, but also the faces and the battleworn dress, very well done! Congrats!
