Troy: Fall of a City had good-looking costumes iirc
Good looking as in accurate or as in looking good? I have t even heard of the series until now, but I am a sucker for Troy's ill have to check it out. From screenshot, you could do worse. Probably be more wearing less and the typical 'everybody wore earth tones until the late 40s and even then only Americans' thing of cinema is there.
More restrained, I guess. Not looking like magic Romans.
Depends on the vibe of the movie for me. If sometjong is trying g to seem historical I want the well paid people working on it to do as much work looking into it as I have in my free time
Sure, but the Trojan War as we know it is a mythical mishmash of a potentially real conflict, tropes from other Bronze Age civilizations the Greeks were in contact with, and outright fabrications to make sure that powerful people's ancestors got time to shine, right?
Yeah, so all you really have to do is avoid making them look post bronze age, which doesnt happen much
