Scribal thingies
2009-03-03 11:11 pmThoroughly efficient afternoon. I have a scribal assignment due on Thursday, so I invited Helwig over and as she got out a little earlier today she made it to my place around four. Then we both got to work and were quite efficient for over four hours. I drafted a scroll text, practiced it once, then wrote it out on the scroll without making any (fatal) mistakes. Then I painted on miniatum on most of the places that needs gilding. I ran out of steam and my brush almost ran out of life.
I might even add a little more details, it's the principality service award which is named the Golden Ribbon - so might add a gilded ribbon somewhere. Must gild and paint and whitework and ... froof before Thursday evening.
I'm quite pleased with the text - at the same time I'm embarrassed because I'm pounding a big drum. Anyway. Pictures after the weekend.
