Designs for seals need to be about 2.5-3cm in size. Weight will be given to appropriate period documentation/ research, and design. The winning entry will be used for the seal on our AoA Writ's and will also be used as a Warden's badge/ seal so it will be used for a long time.
15/01/10 Award of Arms Scroll Competition
A competition will be held among the
scribes of Lochac to complete pre-printed or original Award of Arms Scrolls,
the winner to be proclaimed Scribe of Lochac (if an
induividual) or Scriptorium of Lochac (if a group) for the
year. The competition starts at Rowany Festival this year
and ends at Canterbury Fair in the coming year, with prizes presented
at Festival next year. Places will
be judged on the number of points gained during the competition.
Completing the
calligraphy for a pre-printed Award of Arms counts as one
point, and the standard illumination likewise counts as one point.
Adding embellishments gains extra points, as does doing the
calligraphy, illumination, or both for an original AoA scroll.
Once all outstanding
AoA's have been completed scribes will be able to request to continue
calligraphing and illuminating GA blanks. As these are a more
complicated blank they will be worth two points each for calligraphy
and illumination. However they will not be available until all
outstanding AoA's have been completed.
To
enter, contact the
Provost to request one of more scroll assignments,
indicating whether you wish to do the calligraphy, illumination, or
both, and whether it is an original scroll or a
pre-print. You will then received further instructions.
