abendgules I was really pleased with this small but perfectly formed scroll prepared in a hurry for Aarnimetsa Academy (posted to Dragon's Scribes blog).
Firsts:
- attempt at 16th c exemplar
- new efforts in illumination - trying to convey the 3D shape of the column
- using my smallest nibs yet
AND: it arrived in time, hallelujah.
Even better: my very clever sweetie cut me some reservoirs from a beer tin last night, and they work like a dream. Hurrah. I might get a handle on this quill business yet.
