yq design for nostalgic chill! he's two years older than canon, so he's a little larger and more confident.

rewatching neverafter knowing gerard was never properly socialized and spent most of his life as a frog makes me feel so much. of course he’s awkward and weird! of course he’s going to say the wrong thing! he was a frog for a huge part of his life! he literally didn’t have anyone to converse with from the end of childhood until the beginning of his adulthood. he missed out on some incredibly formative years.

also “outside is scary inside is safe that is why castles are built! everything is good in here!” from a man who was only safe once he was allowed inside and suffered intense trauma for years uninterrupted while being forced outside goes so insane. it only makes sense that he added “and flies” to elody’s list of threats. flies represent the worst part of his existence. he is unsafe when surrounded by flies and forced to use them as a source for food. gerard is forced to learn that you can be unsafe anywhere. he can be a frog anywhere, even in a position of royalty that should grant him to utmost comfort.

thinking about how aragorn wears boromir’s bracers after his death

image description under the cut!

[ID: first image is of boromir where he’s sitting down and you can see his bracer on his arm and the second image is of aragorn with his arm up where you can see the same bracer. the bracer is brown leather with an intricate design on it of feathers at the top towards the elbow, star like symbols run down the middle of the feather design, the white tree of gondor is on the bottom towards the wrist and finally outside the wrist area on both sides is some swirly looking accent design. End ID.]

hello!

to start off, i just wanna say that i love your blog and it has been a wonderful archive and resource for kimono and japanese fashion history!

on that note, i was wondering if you happen to know about these tight sleeves worn by the main characters on jidaigeki? (circled in red)

someone on reddit suggested that it could be a strip of sarashi wrapped around the arm, while this ask here said it could be a juban with its long sleeves bounded tightly (they did provide a link which is now unfortunately no longer available).

i was just wondering which is correct, and if these sleeves are historically accurate?

thank you! ☺️

Hi! Thank you for your kind words <3

Well technically one could use fabric strips to wrap arms (and legs), but it's dubious this would have been done unless you were a rag-wearer of some kind. This is inconceivable in a formal setting (first pic), and for well-off samurai (second pic).

To my knowledge, juban would not have been used like this either. Wrapping them would have looked wonky and felt uncomfortable considering juban tailoring.

Arm wrappers are in fact a whole category of "traditional" clothing, and generally called 手甲 tekkou, which designates any mittens-like arm bracers, tied with strings and/or kohaze clasps.

Variations existed:

in length, for example 半手甲 wrist to elbow / 長手甲 wrist to upper arm often tied together on the bust

with or without part covering backs of hands, coming in different shapes and styles, attached or not with a loop around middle finger (山付き手甲, 手甲付き手筒).

Similar attire existed for legs, in form of gaiters/leg warmers called 脚絆 kyahan.

(find more, including another "sexy" kyahan pic, and how to put them on here)

As a side note, vocab around mitten-like clothing can be confusing:

手甲 Tekkou, is the generic term for anything covering the arms and hands, including gauntlet/armored ones (which I know under the term 籠手 kote)

But you can also find the word 腕貫 udenuki = arm tube, which can made from several materials like rattan/bamboo (worn under sleeves to keep fresh during summer, or above them to protect sleeves when writing with a brush), or made from fabric (and used for warmth, to keep dirt away, etc. Also called 腕袋 udebukuro)

Nowadays, both tekkou and kyahan are still super common sight during matsuri, as they are part of the attire of mikoshi bearers and taiko drumers (see this shop here and here):

Hope this helps :)

Marik Ishtar's Egyptian Wristbands from YuGiOh

Sims 4 Version

A few months ago, I made Marik's Egyptian Wristbands for the Sims 3 under the creator name SallyCompaq122. Now, I've recreated the wristbands for use in the Sims 4.

This follows my release of Marik's Egyptian Armbands; however, please note that since both items are mapped to the same UV space, they cannot be worn together. For that delight, you'll have to wait for the release of my armbands and wristbands combo. In the meantime, enjoy these items separately!

If you like the Sims 4 and want to play with this content, you can download it here.

These wristbands are base-game compatible and work for male and female sims of all ages and sizes—they morph.

The level of detail is optimized so as not to slow down your game.

There are 8 presets color-matched to precious metals and other metals historically used in jewelry.

I will be posting more of my content here, especially since I am actively creating again, so if you're interested, give me a follow.

See more of my work: Check out my archive.

Keep me creating: Support me on KoFi.

Happy Makers Monday!

Just finished up this custom pair of bracers for a friend and I'm loving how they turned out.

Inspired by the same stlyle of bracers as those I wear when performing, these bracers were made with additional stamp detailing and duel daggers.

To get your own custom pair of bracers feel free to reach out via my Patreon or via the Etsy link below.

Wishing you all a wonderful last week of summer. :) While I'll miss these longer days, I am very excited to get all snuggled up for fall. 🍁 🍂

“I have never been so wrong in all my life.”

I think the Hobbit films are pretty mid, but one thing I do love about them is their depiction of the growing bonds between Bilbo and the dwarves, and especially his relationship with Thorin. This particular scene is one of the best in the entire series.
