Oh, and by the way, while I was busy... I made a draw-bridge!

Today, I have the change to finally give these to their recipients.

These were personal gifts made by me in historical fashion for three close friends of my at my church.

Artisans: don't undervalue your work (even if you aren't paid for it!)

These period medallions took 7.5 hrs to make, @ $30/hr for skilled labor, that's $75 each / $225 for the set.

Remember that the next time you give/receive largess.

Everyone!

Another one for the ban/block lost. Hes a conservative troll who looks like he just shovels out memes, some of which aren't even on political posts, but are meant to start a political fight.

I used my Christmas money to get an armor bag for my new rapier kit.

@megganljc.bsky.social 's cat, Brienne of Floof, has decided it makes a much better bed.

I modeled and cast this medallion as a gift for their excellencies of the Steppes at their 12th night event a few weeks ago.

@megganljc.bsky.social and I managed to carve out some time to do some garb-in-snow photos this evening.

Don't tell me "if you're cold, they're cold" when talking about a Great Pyrenees.

Iroh begged to go out, and begged to stay out, despite 30 degree weather and a heavy, wet falling snow.

it was my honor last weekend to receive this.

I am now regarded as a full member of a barony that I live over 5 hours from, based on my work with them. "Salt is in blood, sweat, and tears, and you have given all 3 for this barony" I was told.

When I pulled in, the roads were dry and clear.

That was less than 90 minutes ago.

Today, I am left contemplating those who aren't with us this year.

Yuri (left) and Riza (right) were taken from us in August, less than two weeks apart. The world is a darker place without them, and I will miss both of them tomorrow when we are opening presents.

My Barony, Wiesenfeuer, loves me.
These are all the pass down items I am now responsible for as the Baronial A&S champion.

(left to right) : belt pouch, flame baldric, leatherbound notebook, necklace, and wooden chest.

@scasocial.bsky.social @ansteorra.bsky.social

So, today I entered my Barony's A&S competition with a hand made, sand-cast medallion, and a LOT of documentation.

It was my absolute honor to be named the Arts & Sciences Champion of Wiesenfeuer in court this evening. I am still speechless.

One of the 100 hand-cast tokens I made for my wife's vigil last week. The two bumps in the upper right are raised enough to hold a brush or pen and keep it from rolling. I hand cast, cleaned, sanded, drilled and ringed all 100 of them.
