Learning different rosegrounds! The colors came out a bit funny with how I placed them but I still like it and I definitely fucked something up in the last section but I didn't notice until I was tying it off so oh well 😅😅

Dunno if you’ve seen this before but if so, here it is again! https://www.reddit.com/r/Portland/comments/1funbrw/herman_the_sturgeon_in_stained_glass_do_you_have/
I’m trying to learn needle lace and was thinking that stained glass might be great to learn from in terms of composing images with mostly lines and different light values.
Since I’m trying to make a sturgeon bookmark for my first needle lace project (it’s taking. So long to fasten the cordonnet) and haven’t been able to find any pictures of lace sturgeons online to see how people handled the scutes and the light values, I thought I’d see if photos of a stained glass sturgeon existed. They do!
I have indeed seen the glass sturgeon and hold great love for him in my heart.
Couching cordonnet sometimes makes me want to give up before ive even started the actually lace lol. Stay strong my friend
Ive never tried to do a needle lace sturgeon but I did do a fish once - twice actually, but i never finished either one
It’s very wonky cause i had no pattern just fishy love in my heart. Maybe I’ll finish it someday

"But how can you justify a player character with a (non-disinherited) noble background in a dungeon-crawling fantasy game" well, the most obvious approach is a fantasy setting whose nobility practices cognatic primogeniture where, instead of "first son inherits, second son goes into the military, third son becomes a priest", it's "first son inherits, second son goes into the military, third son becomes an adventurer". From the player's perspective, it handily explains why the title comes with little material support from the family; from the family's perspective, there's an unspoken understanding that most of the spare heirs will be eaten by a dragon (or whatever), thereby simplifying the inheritance situation, and the few survivors will become great assets.
(There is, of course, the possibility that a surviving third son, having grown powerful and understandably harbouring some slight resentment, may return, kill his elder brothers with dark magic, and take over the dynasty, but in practice this almost never happens.)
