This was challenging. Scrivener Royal is the title given to the Kingdom Notable who wins the competition to become the scribe for the King and Queen of Atlantia during their reign. I won for the reign of Logan and Esa. We were assigned three backlog scrolls. Two were to be done before we arrived and the third was to be completely blank and done on the spot as a combat scribe. We were asked to do at least one from the 14th century, and one with clothing to meet Their incoming Majesties whims. All three of mine were 14th century on pergamenta. This was the first time I used period pigments instead of gouache, and also the first time I used real 23k gold leaf. First - Coral Branch for Lady Livia di Samuele - based on the Visconti Hours Second - A Court Baroness scroll for Mistress Alyna of the Ilex - Based on the Luttrell Psalter. I tried to include all the awards she had at the time of her Court Baroness. Since it was a backlog I was advised that I should not include her Pelican and had to scrape it out. I found out that she was a Penguins fan and so included a modern touch at the bottom by including the mascot Icey. Third - An Opal for Philipp Hartrat - Codex Manesse. There are no progress pictures on this one as it is the one I combat-scribed. When I arrived at the site and we began, I pounced the perg, measured the border, drew everything on the perg, inked, lined, calligraphed, then painted.
