I have yet to even post anything here this year! Rest assured I have been busy scribing away -- gotten a few scroll assignments from the Tyger Clerk of the Signet, which I will post here eventually. XD (Before the year is out, I promise!
ANYWAY THE FIRST SCROLL I EVER DID FINALLY MADE ITS WAY TO ITS OWNER YAY. I don't know why it didn't go out at Pennsic, maybe the recipient didn't attend Court or something. Regardless, he got it at long last, and was over the moon, which made me feel super good as a scribe! It's a Silver Tyger (East Kingdom AoA-level fighting award) for a man with a Mamluk persona. I developed a faux Arabic hand for it at the last Known World Heraldic and Scribal Symposium I attended based off a Mamluk hand used for writing Quran. I used Finetec gold, gouache and Higgins ink on Arches paper. You can click on the image below for a bigger image.
Yay!
IN ME NEWS, I am prepping to move to the Province of the Mists out in West Kingdom!!! It's finally happening! I'm on the Who's Who out there already, though I won't be updating my entry until I'm actually out there in August. I'll miss my friends and household back here, and my Laurel(s), but I gotta do what I gotta do. <3 And I'm going to be adding heraldry to my repertoire of things I can do in the SCA once I'm there -- I'm actually an Old Used Herald of the book/armorial variety, who designed the arms of the then-Principality of Drachenewald. (There was a contest! I won!) So as well as scribal stuff, I'll be posting heraldic stuff here too going forward. Whee!
More soon!
