Aww yiss look at that painted shield. Just gotta touch up the blue some.

...and after every time it gets whacked...

Wood core and I practice with a shield destroyer so I don't worry about repainting them after the first time since I just assume that it'll be destroyed first.

I've spent a silly amount of time looking through everyone else's photos, and enjoying all of them, so I figure it's only fair to share my own.  It's a bit of an old one (I've grown my hair out back to my natural brown, but I admit I miss the pink).



I might freak out soon and delete it, but for now, HI!  NICE TO MEET YOU.

Thanks, all  :-)

Sadly, I don't have the piercing anymore - I retired it because finding a job was becoming too huge a pain in the ass and I needed to pay my rent.  Then I got laid off anyway, so a big fuck you to that job.

I've been trying to work up the courage to talk to my friend's artist about designing a tattoo.  While I don't have any of my own right now, I do love talking about them and enjoying them vicariously through other people.

Nope, but I basically have to get the rest of my stuff in here within the next week. The boyfriend and I have been making small trips for weeks but now is the time to get all the big stuff. Thankfully 'all the big stuff' is just two large shelves, a ferret cage, and a dresser.

I once went to the hospital in Leuven for a meeting about a computer system.  When the person we were meeting arrived, he saw my companion (a salesman), swore in Flemish, and left.  I then flew back to England. 

I had also been unable to set up the demonstration I had taken because it was on a 9-track magnetic tape, but it turned out that their computer had a 7-track tape deck.

I had an online friend in Germany once who lived in an attic apartment like that, where all the windows were skylights.  I remember him complaining that the apartment was stuffy and warm and terrible, because he had been unable to open the windows at all.  This was 2002, and it just kept raining, and since the windows were in the roof...

Aww, that's really cool!  That's the Albanian one, I'm guessing?  I always liked double headed eagle motifs, and wondered why they were so common in eastern europe.  Turns out (according to wikipedia) they were a symbol of the old Russian empire, passed down from the Byzantine empire - but the symbol's actually older than christianity, it shows up in egyptian tomb art.  I like the way this one fills the heraldic shield form. 

And the tongues.

It is, and my guess is that it's a leftover from the Ottomans, which of course was born of the ashes of the Byzantines. It's also one of the myriad petty bones of contention in Serbo-Albanian relations.
