Eagle Scroll

I just did this in the past day and it will be given out tomorrow at my SCA groups Baronial Birthday. I took out the name since it is a surprise and while I doubt anyone who reads my Weble will know the person, it is better to keep it safe.(It was given so I can replace the name). The calligraphy is horrid, I am not good at it anyway and I am out of practice...so this is pretty bad. Inspired by German heraldry and illumination from the 1400's, "German Eagle Golden Dolphin", 8 1/2 x 11, Micron pen and Acrylic on velum (the skin not the paper). Prints without the lettering available. Picture 10.

  1. Really nice heraldic art. I love this sort of thing.

  2. You should have been there. the Herald read the ENTIRE back, including the bit where you apologized for the calligraphy and 'rush job' everyone laughed. :D It was fantastic, BTW
