Decided to make a post, why not?

Looking for other SCAdians. :)

Looking for friends! :D

I’m in Meridies! (:

I wish more people from the SCA were on Tumblr. There would be a whole new kind of fandom.

Had a photoshoot with a friend this past weekend! I purchased a jeonmo (전모) hat frame and threw a silk veil on top for these photos. This type of hat was used in Joseon along with a black veil by noble women to cover their faces when they went out. I’m using thin silk here since it’s what I’ve got but the veils were more opaque in period. I’m extremely thrilled by this photos and the frame! I can’t wait to use it at events. (: Photos by the lovely Rebecca Scott.

Scroll given out at Midwinter Arts and Sciences today that I did! It was a last minute rush scroll, so some of my paint is uneven and my whitework is messier than I’d like, but I’m glad it’s done. Illumination by me (Lady Stella di Silvestri) and calligraphy by Baron Lorenzo Petrucci Oakgall ink, gouache, Finetec gold on bristol.

Painted boxes I made as a gift for the Baron and Baroness of Oldenfeld in Trimaris at their stepping down court. I also made a box for the barony but didn't snap a shot of it finished. If you're interested in getting a box with your heraldry painted on it, let me know! I'd be happy to work something out with you! (:
