Somedays I forget that I'm a scribe....
May. 2nd, 2014 12:57 pmWhen you are a Kingdom Scriptorium, you get a lot of scrolls to make. There are only about 8-9 of us that are active with the Atenveldt Southern Scriptorium (no, we don't go by an acronym cause anyway you spin it is gauche.) With that we've produced over 35+ scrolls for this weekend and then worked on at least a half dozen others. Included in that are 4 peerage scrolls.
scribe_ari did two of the peerage scrolls by herself and I did one of them and the 4th was a combined effort by
lferion,
ickaimp and the chemical skills of
weavedancer. In the last week I've finished a County, callig'd 9 scrolls and put names on 28 scrolls. oof. Coronation is this weekend in at least two kingdoms (where our scrolls are going...) and its hard when you have switch overs of power because it ends up with a lot of scrolls to do. The stepping down set wants a ton, the stepping up set has a ton, especially if they have done it before and they want to do things specifically.
Just a lot of work in general. What is cool to me is that my calligraphy and my painting skills levelled up in the last few weeks. I drew, painted and callig'd a peerage scroll all on my own, which was a first for me. I basically learned two new hands to do things this week. One is a pseudo Arabic script and a Secretary Batard. Maybe its grace under fire, timeline is needed that I wasn't nervous and just did stuff. I'll be posting pictures after the weekend to show off my work and that of the other folks. Lots of awesome there.
