And here are the original manuscript that I used for inspiration. Visconti Hours c. 1389 Manuscript (Banco Rari 397), 247 x 175 mm Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale, Florence

I also made a Vita Portens väktare (guardian of the white gate) for Einar Helsingr. A fighting award in Nordmark

For this one I used this manuscript as inspiration “Národní knihovna České republiky XIV.A.17”:

And the last one that actually was the first one I did of these three was a Order of the Dragons steel, that are an Drachenwald award for fencing for Anna vom Urwald. I did forget to take a picture of it after the gilding were done but a photo of that will come.

For this I used a manuscript thats called Masters of the Dark Eyes Missal. The whole manuscript fast turned out to be a new favorite. 520929b39826f62179cf0085a5d3476b

All of this scrolls are new illumination styles for me and they were fun to do. My challenge still are the writing and I have said for a long time that I need to start practicing my hand. So this is what I´m going to do (and not just talking about doing that I´ve done for a while now!). I´m thinking about starting with this two styles. Gothic textura and Gothic Batarde
