Beyond the Pale

     For the next base, I've been working on various kern - a daunting and time-consuming task that tests my GS abilities sorely.  Overall I'm very pleased, but when I look at the photos, imperfections become obvious.  Some of these have been painted already.  More to follow.


A typical kern with the kind of glaive one often sees in illustrations.

A "dartman" in a simpler costume (just the leine) and a more important man.  The variety of clothing, arms, and appearances is much greater than one might expect - contemporary illustrations show many different designs, colors, etc.
