LionsDragon 939 Posted August 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 So, I was watching a bit of medieval reconstruction when I remembered there was something odd about medieval glass I'd wanted to research. The short version: glass in many parts of northern and western Europe used to be made with wood ash to provide some of the necessary chemistry, so it had an interesting green-gold effect and was called "forest glass." Here's a window with forest glass and leading; I have been considering a medieval house model (from my favorite book) for some time, so now I at least have the windows for it! 5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lynxster4 3,152 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Nice @LionsDragon! How did they see through it? 😁 Wood frame is superb.

Pixey 4,809 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 This is really very well done @LionsDragon A very polished image The woodwork frame and the lattice work are perfect and the forest glass is spectacular Can't wait to see the house that goes with it 1 Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.

Woodsy 853 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 I agree with those above @LionsDragon! The wood framework is very well done! And the glass fits right in. 1 Quote My PDN Gallery Link to post Share on other sites

LionsDragon 939 Posted August 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 Thank you, everyone! And @lynxster4, seeing through it wasn't the goal quite as much as letting in a bit of light. Now, to building! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LionsDragon 939 Posted September 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2019 "The room was all dim like a cave, and the red fire burning still and watchful seemed like the eye of the Lord. There was a little red eye in every bit of ware on the dresser too, where it caught the gleam." --Precious Bane chapter 2, "Telling the Bees."

LionsDragon 939 Posted September 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 Thank you! I have way, WAY too much fun with Shape 3D. This house in question has at least two more (the book doesn't go into much detail about the layout). Next up: making a loom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LionsDragon 939 Posted September 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 Thank you! Some of the bits I have been working on for over a year. Also, there's no such thing as an uninteresting language fact (used to be a librarian, moi). This one actually had me squeeing; the book is set in Shropshire, so everyone is basically Welsh at heart. The name Sarn now makes SO much sense in context (narrator has a very ambitious brother). ❤️ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pixey 4,809 Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 What a cozy looking nook (sorry, Sarn) @LionsDragon I applaud your use of Shape 3D - a plugin I much admire, but don't totally understand how to use. A lot of detail in that room, from the ceiling to the floor, and that bed cover looks very inviting. Great work 1 Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.

Seerose 4,273 Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 Dear @LionsDragon! 💐 Very well done. To work with the shape 3d not so easy.

JulioCoolio 143 Posted September 8, 2019 Report Share Posted September 8, 2019 First off, very nice window! I love the textures and the attention to detail that you put into that. The roomscape is amazing too! I honestly wouldn't know where to start with one if I tried. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LionsDragon 939 Posted December 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2019 So, I had to take a few months off for various RL reasons. I come back bringing my 2019 holiday card--which turned out to be an unexpected memorial to Woodsy since I used a couple of his tricks. Whatever you celebrate folks, I hope it's a happy one. --Alyce 5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lynxster4 3,152 Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Beautiful @LionsDragon! The gently falling snow seems in a way...so comforting.

LionsDragon 939 Posted December 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Thank you! That was the effect I was after; one of Woodsy's animation tricks helped me get the timing right. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pixey 4,809 Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 What a lovely scene @LionsDragon it's very peaceful and the snow flakes are very calming.

JulioCoolio 143 Posted January 4, 2020 Report Share Posted January 4, 2020 Wonderful new piece! Love the animation of the candle wick and the snow falling. The colors are also very soothing along with the feel that is in the environment of the image. I personally haven't one much animation stuff (except for a few gifs and custom pointer packs), but I'd like to look into it more after seeing this. Well done! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing but happiness to you Great animation. I found myself just watching the candle wick moving. Clever and has been said, soothing/ enchanting Actually, watching a dancing candle was what inspired it, so I'm glad it worked! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
