Guenivere (Cheri Lunghi) Wedding dress.. Excalibur (1981).. Costume by Bob Ringwood.

**I’ve featured this dress a few times, but it’s just because I love it so.

**Update, I’ve seen people ask what the veil material is made of, I watched at behind the scenes commentary from the director who said he had it made out of very fine chain mail. He said many people have asked the costume maker how to recreate it and he said it was impossible as it was made special for this movie.

I'm subscribed to Ali Slagle's newsletter because I find her to be a brilliant recipe developer—her recipes are just always so well-written, efficient, and delicious, with genius little flavor tricks and no waste. This week she linked to this post by Julia Turshen, whose recipe writing I also love, and whose two books, Small Victories: Recipes, Advice + Hundreds of Ideas for Home Cooking Triumphs and Now and Again: Go-To Recipes, Inspired Menus + Endless Ideas for Reinventing Leftovers, are thoroughly dog-eared and live on my bookshelf.

I love the way she describes how to figure out what you want to eat, and thought I'd share it for those who frequently (like me) find themselves in just such a pickle, on a weeknight especially.

The knightly taste about Lady johnna likes showing off her new ultimate-multi-function duel longsword

just see how beautiful(ridiculous) these are

I apologize, @vanishlily. I have hence removed the #fantasy weapons tag from my previous reblog.

sometimes reality is more crazy than fantasy😆

does anyone know where I can find good reference images of victorian-era wheelchairs? I want to draw the jovial contrarian but all the wheelchair art refs/tutorials I can find are for modern wheelchairs

okay so here's a few photo's i have on hand for ref

Here is an article on the history of the wheelchair, which has some info on the victorian era ones

Image from that one, circa late 1860s.

Another from the science museum, late victorian era:

This one in particular is noteworthy as : "unlike a typical bath chair, the wheels are fitted with an extra ring to allow the chair to be driven by the passenger. " so perhaps keep that in mind for drawing too

So i usually go off of the old picture + combine some facets of modern wheelchair for Fallen London, since i think The Neath could have some of it own technological advancments

Hope these are helpful!

Here are a couple of pages from two Silber & Fleming catalogues from the 1880s (first, second), listing various types of wheelchairs for sale.
