Scribal-adjacent

This page is for projects related to scribal work (ie. calligraphy, painting, and design skills), but not technically scribal work.

I did not make these from scratch, I just painted them.

Created as part of the Cast in Steel competition team at Texas A&M University in 2021 & 2022.

Among other tasks, I designed the decorative work on the metal components, including both the historical research and digital drawing of the designs.

Project reports are attached below for documentation. See "Historical background", "Sword design", and "Ornamentation" sections specifically.

Celtic Leaf Sword, with La Tene style imagery inspired by Lord of the Rings.

Replica Thor's Hammer, with Jelling style knotwork inspired by Yggdrasil.

Made for recruitment on Texas A&M campus. (Mostly) historical illumination with modern calligraphy.

Open squares are for QR codes to be taped onto, which then lead to the Shire of the Shadowlands website.
