There are so many things I could do... :o

The figures are breathtaking, and the walls look great as a Tudor interior, but is the carpeting accurate? It feels overly colored, and makes it harder to appreciate the figures.

You've probably done your research and it's correct. Tudor houses and palaces I've visited are of course over 400 years old, and the carpets don't always last the tramp of millions of feet, let alone the fading from sunlight.

I'm sorry to disapoint you Martin, whereas I do try to look at original paintings for customising my figures the background was just 3 walls and a floor I put together for the photo, the flooring was just a pretty piece of tiled card I had.  :-\ I have a feeling it was mostly rushes on floor with rugs for the rich.

I'd like to see that as well, I've got a few klickes with broken hands I'd love to change.
Improvise, adapt, overcome ..... If all else fails FAKE IT!

I'd love to see that same setup without the tiled floor (and just plain wooden boards) if that's possible. I think the figures would look even more splendid without the distracting background.

The individual panes in the floor would make great stained glass windows in a rich Tudor house.  ;D
