Brian’s Calon Cross

November 6, 2022 / Konstantia/Constans / 7 Comments

Generally, I try to post about a scroll when it gets presented, but attacks of life happen. This was one such scroll. Back in July, I got asked if I could do a scroll for a friend (one of many that went out during the last reign), and I said that I could. With Brian's … Continue reading Brian’s Calon Cross

Interkingdom Shenani-plans

September 4, 2022 / Konstantia/Constans / 1 Comment

Imagine it: it's the end of July. I have just completed a blank border and another scroll (that I still can't talk about) and no sooner do I finish the blank border, I get a wha-ping from an instant message from a kingdom I don't even live in. Turns out, that was a "hey, do … Continue reading Interkingdom Shenani-plans

Post-Lilies War Scroll Roundup

July 4, 2022 / Konstantia/Constans / 2 Comments

Even though I wasn't able to go to Lilies War this year for varying reasons, I still had scrolls that made it to Lilies. The first scroll was assigned from Calontir Battle Scribes. Calontir Battle Scribes allows people to ask for scrolls for prizes at events, allowing people to attempt original pieces with regard to … Continue reading Post-Lilies War Scroll Roundup

Calon Cross for Gawin Käppler

April 24, 2022 / Konstantia/Constans / 3 Comments

No rest for the wicked, really. No sooner had I completed John's scroll, I got contacted by the Royal Scribe again on if I could get another scroll done. Now, this one had a challenge of time, with it being given out two weeks after I had gotten the assignment. Thankfully, for this scroll, I'm … Continue reading Calon Cross for Gawin Käppler

Silver Hammer for John Bowyer and other good news

April 4, 2022 / Konstantia/Constans / 2 Comments

Now that things are starting to kick back into gear, courts are happening again, and life is slowly starting to return to a new sense of "normal," it also means that my scribal slate is starting to fill with activities and assignments again. Back around the very end of last year, I got asked "hey, … Continue reading Silver Hammer for John Bowyer and other good news

The Great Gold Paint Review

May 19, 2020May 26, 2020 / Konstantia/Constans / 2 Comments

As a scribe, I'm often asked what I use for my gold paint, and that's where I kind of hem and haw a bit. You see, like any other art nerd, I have collected a few different supplies here and there, and have experimented, and well, now I have a post coming. I've gathered the … Continue reading The Great Gold Paint Review

Creative Anachronism in the Time of Corona(virus)

May 10, 2020June 12, 2020 / Konstantia/Constans / 2 Comments

Hi all. I know, it's been a bit since I last blogged. With the global shutdown, and with my modern job heavily tied to taking care of contingencies just like this, I didn't have much time to devote to the Society. . .until I could then devote some time to my arts, for a bit. … Continue reading Creative Anachronism in the Time of Corona(virus)

Zaneta’s Silver Hammer

November 2, 2019November 3, 2019 / Konstantia/Constans / Leave a comment

When an opportunity drops in your lap to write a text for a fellow herald, sometimes, you drop everything and do it. Zaneta (our current Eyas herald) has been doing some fantastic glasswork, and her ability and patience to teach people how to do things with a rather finicky artform has not gone unnoticed. So, … Continue reading Zaneta’s Silver Hammer

Text: Adelaide Sarsfield’s Calon Cross

July 28, 2019 / Konstantia/Constans / 1 Comment

Our Minister of Youth has done a bang-up job at taking care of the youth of Calontir, and when I was approached about writing the text, I said yes. (Also, I love writing scroll texts, and often wish I could write more.) It's based on the letters written by Henry VIII to Cardinal Wolsey, and … Continue reading Text: Adelaide Sarsfield’s Calon Cross

Logan’s Silver Hammer

December 10, 2018 / Konstantia/Constans / 3 Comments

Being able to work on this was truly a joy.  The work that Count Logan has done in researching banners and then teaching others, well . . . he gets it.  And his work truly is amazing. When I started researching things for his scroll, I knew I wanted to do one of two things: … Continue reading Logan’s Silver Hammer
