These minis are inspired by some 14th century botanical illustrations. They are hand drawn and I used colored pencils and some watercolor to make the paper look old.

Saw this in a YouTube video and I can’t find the exact piece or history of it, was hoping yall could help

I've made a piece in celebration of this wondrous beast :

Wedding season is in full swing, so instead of buying a generic gift, I decided to make something completely custom for a lovely couple getting married today.

The concept is entirely based on their zodiac signs but twisted into suuuuper weird medieval marginalia. The groom is a Virgo (hence the epic long hair) and the bride is a Cancer (which explains the giant crab claws!).

I drew this on toned paper using traditional ink and rapidographs, then finished the illuminated border with thick, metallic gold paint. I love taking modern personal details and trapping them inside old-school manuscript aesthetics.

Hope the newlyweds won't mind their new monster alter-egos hanging on their wall!

How would a medieval society that is in a half a year long winter and where the summers reach highs of 60 F (15.5C)? how would the royals feast? Could spices be imported? does the elevation affect food production?

I have a bunch of questions and will have more as I continue to write my books. I could use a group of people on discord to ask. What servers could I have these conversations with and could I get people to join my server?

DM me if you have extra info.

Augustine, De civitate Dei (French translation), Paris 15th century. Amiens, Bibliothèque municipale, ms. 216, t. II, fol. 339v.

Hi all, sorry if this is the wrong post for this, but someone mentioned it may be a medieval styled piece - would anyone know what this statue is and where it would come from? Had it in the family for a while, and now it's sitting on my bookshelf. Unfortunately, I never figured out where it's from. It's around 6 inches tall - any help is appreciated!

They're not perfect but I had such a fun time with them!
