Hi Murdock,

Jess who?

Murdock · Post by **Murdock** » Tue Aug 12, 2008 3:03 pm

Jess Vitus's squire

I think she bought it for her, might have been for someone else.

Pics are concentrated on the known world novice tourney and Baron Ateno of Annun Ridge's elevation to the Pelican. My lovely lady Giovanna took all the photos.

I am in possession of Murdock's breastplate that Jess bought.

Christian H. Tobler · Post by **Christian H. Tobler** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 8:48 am

Hi again Murdock,

Interesting...I didn't know you did any armouring. Are your breastplates spring steel?

Murdock · Post by **Murdock** » Wed Aug 13, 2008 8:53 am

I do a little, slowly doing more.

That globose is in spring. I don't have alot of spring on hand so i usually do stainless and Aluminum.

Mianly because thats what people ask for.

I made bout half of my rig for the 30 this year.

Cet made the greaves and vambraces, Hedgecock made the legs and the helms's not my work. The body, elbows, spaulders, guantlets and greave backs all mine.

I could do another one i have another spring blank. I have made 4 now, started #5.

Lol, saw those last night, while looking thru Pennsic Pics. I am still finding it funny, seeing my old Bascinet with aventail on Duke Michael of Bedfords son Kaylun. He is the one on first page in purple, next to Duke Brion of Terragons son.

anyone get any pics of the guy with only half of left arm fighting for calontir ? hope you all don't think i'm vain or anything but i'd like to see what i looked like out there. of course you couldn't tell until i unstrapped my shield anyways so probably not. i was the only calontir guy that had black horse hair on my helm. just thought i'd ask. i saw a few cameras pointing my way a few times.

I bought it for me, but it was too flat. I seem to be a little more... 3D? rounder?... than you. Sure fits my boss though.

I knew you made it but didn't realize you were making stuff for other people. So you interested in making me one for some $? Now that I've picked it up, and realized it weighs less than plastic, I gotta have a spring kit. I'm not going outside NA, and since I can't afford a $15,000 kit yet, and Stonekeep tells me he's not ready, that pretty much leaves you cornering the spring market.

Syr Corby,

Your feathered helmet topper was very cool.
It made finding you in the scrum an easy task.

Yup. Definately a gorgeous encampment. Seeing those banners snapping in the breeze was a high point for us daily.

Here are the pics from my camera. They are out of order due to the way they were loaded to the site.

This is a public album so feel free to add any pics of Pennsic 37 that you want.

I love how different Pennsic looks depending on whose photo album you look at.

And just one picture of my guys, I'm so proud of them!

Thanks for sharing that Melisent.

I love fighting, and I cant miss a war point, but sometimes seeing pics like these, just reminds me of how much more Pennsic is sometimes, and how much I sometimes miss cause of fighting everything.

Need to remember to take an afternoon off or two, just to walk around Pennsic next year, as long as there is no war point, and look around. I cant remember the last time I did that, probably been close to 13 years.

I have posted the first two galleries of my Pennsic picture trove. These consist of spars taking place on Wednesday thru Friday of the first week ("The first week") and that Saturday ("the first Saturday"), about 600 some odd pictures in all.

Some samples. First, from the spars:

And then, from Saturday:

My personal situation remains unsettled, if not quite so dire as I'd thought. Still, I'm not sure when I'll be able to post more, especially since Sunday was a very busy day (Opening ceremonies, Combat and the Thirty and Lost Boys, among other stuff), but I'm going to shoot for early next week. Of course, I will post here when I do so. I've barely scratched the surface of what I have!

It was a privilege to be present and record some of the wonderful events of Pennsic. Thanks to all of you for such a great War.

(Edit) I suppose I should provide some links to make it easier on you all:

Ursus,

Thank you so much for the service you provide. Many of us are unable to take pictures while fighting, and we all look forward to your pictures after Pennsic.

The shame of it is that he actually put time and effort into it and made it out of white plastic.

Effingham · Post by **Effingham** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 1:23 pm

I really wish people like that could be yanked off the field.

Cripes.

Nissan Maxima · Post by **Nissan Maxima** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 1:44 pm

People like that will be what keeps the SCA around for many years to come.

Were you ever new at this Effingham? With all due respect to your immense skills and knowledge, thou wouldst do well to pull that stick out of thine ass, before commenting on the mote in thy neighbors eye.

Vladimir · Post by **Vladimir** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 1:57 pm

I wouldn't say "yank him off the field".

After all, he isn't breaking any actual rules. But I do wish he had put on a surcoat or something.

I'm hoping that the plastic was free and was the only material he had to work with, and that he has a half finished suit made from leather and steel at home.

Vitus von Atzinger · Post by **Vitus von Atzinger** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 2:10 pm

I took that guy's picture because he was inspiring. If he is new, then he REALLY wants to be there with us. REALLY wants to be there.
If he is an old hand, he is either lazy or a smart ass. That is also sort of funny.
This type of thing doesn't bother me anymore. I like the SCA on all of it's levels...

Here is the glorious Duke Paul, teaching people good mechanics. He was out there for HOURS every day, asking for NOTHING in return.

Arundel and Marduk of Clanne Preachain. Celts. Bog Troopers. Mercs.

Yeah, but they are *well dressed* mercs.

Is it just me or does it appear that there are a crapload of lefties at Pennsic?

Well, I don't use Mercs as a pejorative, or as an expectation of a crappy appearance. Clanne Preachain is certainly at the favorable end of the spectrum, as they double as a living history group specializing in iron age celts. Still, hard to get away from the obligatory gauntlets.

Murdock · Post by **Murdock** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 2:48 pm

re: the guy in white plastic

Praise what is worthy, tolerate what is not.

If he's new help him, if newbs look bad thats our fault for not teaching them better.

if he's been round a while and is just being "fugly on purpose" then thats his renoun.

Nuff said
