This time diary will be probably quite short. I almost given up, but due to FedPete’s flexibility in the deadline I decided that maybe I’ll manage to do something. My original idea was to make a simple scene inspired by legends of King Arthur (Excalibur floating just above the lake, with a lady’s hand holding it). Most probably will not do a full scene, but at least will go there partially.
The shape was one of the first designs I found when I googled for “medieval sword blueprint” . Though I did some research, and it seems that this design matches (roughly) arthurian legends times
What can I say, that’s what the movies showed. They are accurate source of historical knowledge!
I think Excalibur was forged out of love, hasn’t it?
(and a sword was really useful thing on the road )
Phew, I barley escaped. You didn’t notice the typo in the runes
(TBH, I would really need to spent a lot of time on this if I wanted to be sure that I’m even remotely accurate, both in terms of legends and the actual sword. I gave up on the hope of being accurate more or less the time I started digging Oakeshott typology . And for the time being of modelling I subscribed to the version of the legend that the sword was given to Arthur by the Lady of the Lake. So it’s magical, and as magic goes I can explain any historical inaccuracy )
