I was thinking similar, or perhaps that it had to be eased into the hole.

Rev. George

yes, but the file is 6mb or so.

Rev. George

Good point. My assumption was that you were talking about the female version, so my information is about that version.

Rev. George

well, we dont exactly have a lot of existant articles hanging about, so the issue of gores (triangular insets) in the front and back is up to interpretation. {ersoanlly, I only insert gores in the sides, for a seam-free front (because I've see no seams in funeral brasses. however this doesnt mean th...

Can you do anything with rivetted aluminum to take that "hey, I'm wearing bright shiny rivetted aluminum mail" look off? If so how much? I'd love to get a dull mild looking grey out of it. Go to your local Big LOTS: buy the following: 1 sterilite plastic tub (~4 bux) enough of "the works" toilet cl...

Rev. George

yes, everything is in the mail.

Los Bump

Rev. George

While i shouldnt be doing this....

I could also do the cloak. Or possibly trade you fro some of the garb on my other post.

Rev. George

I dunno what that would be, though i have had reports of it not playing well with firefox. The problem with free servers is that you have to deal with weirdo banner-type stuff. c'est la vie

I'm assuming the "something" he's referring to may be a bread trencher?

Just a guess tho.

wellll... we do know from iconographic evidence that the islamic gourd (which was apparantly eaten) look a hell of a lot like a squash. I have no idea if it even exists as a cultivar now.

Rev. George

Though hey, right handers on sale? Are you sure they're not lefties? It just seems odd that the more used tongs would be on sale. Actually his tongs are ambidextrous, BUT there was a manufacturing screw-up, and the hole that a leftie would use got mis-drilled or some such, therefore they ate only E...

I've seen them made into a huge dishing hammer

While I will give "dibbs" to Bronfinnion, I am also availible, work in wool and dont charge what I would consider "an arm and a leg".

If you want the cloak in black or golden-yellow wool, and can get me money fast, I can cut you a hell of a deal, as I am in a bad way for money right now

-+G

Rev. George

what do you need/want? Is it limited directly to armour, or do you need clothes? what sizes are you? not just for my info, but also for others.

Rev. George

its a greyhound, which is a perfectly valid heraldric charge.

fireguilding is supposed to stick really well. mix powdered gold with mercury, slather on and burn the mercury off. Of course i think it would eb illegal as hell to do in any first world country.

He was not a knight, but Emporer Fredrick Barbarossa of Germany died in 1190 at the age of 67 while leading his people on crusade. He didn't even die of old age. He drowned while defiantly crossing a river that was deemed impassable. i dunno about that. as i understand he drowned in relative shallo...

I saw him at dreamstone (april 22 or so) in person, though i dont think he recognized me.

Rev. George

If you look close one might see something in it. Wink

I saw it... witheld comment, but i saw it...

I hope it does not go to the fetish crowd, as I would rather not make stuff for them.

Bad thing is, that's where a lot of money lives.

Rev. George

have you tried getting plain yarmukles?

-+G

Rev. George

its actually quite easy to put a metal ring in a handsewn eyelet. just slip it over the bodkin after you have pierced the fabric, and do your blanket stitch over it.

my hosen/chaucess/whatnot are pinned. I pass the tip of the hose through the hole in the waistband of my braies, over the drawstring, and then pin the point back down to itself. its right sturdy, and easy to do.,

Rev. George

well if you rotate it, so that the corners of the square become points of a diamond, it would be much better. doing that and Raising the wingtips would get you back into standard practice

-+g

Rev. George

Ok, that's a gryphon, now, as for the posture, the best i can do is bendwise segregant with wings inverted.

In my humble opinion, this particular posture is very dynamic, and as such, might not be the best for heraldry... but its your idea

In the issue of using images, My understanding is that the big key is words. If I write an academic paper , say, "an analysis of sacchromyces subspecies in 15th century western european brewing cites " And I use pre-published micrographs of various subspecies, I must cite them (for that kinda paper,...

I believe you can link to outside sites, provided they are not commercial.

I agree on the whole "construct a better title" suggestion, as well as putting the starting bid at like 5 bux.

The gryphon in the graphic is in the crest ("overall" would be a gryphon in the middle of the escutcheon, presumably counterchanged); crests (& mottoes, & mantling) are not registered in the SCA College of Arms, so the blazon would just cover the escutcheon bit. (The "crest" refers to just the bit ...
