I had a dream once as a kid where I blew out a massive snot ball the size of my head and it felt amazing.

Well Im imitating Norse period tablet woven patterns, though Im unsure if they'd match any archeological finds exactly since Im not trying to be super period accurate. The tunic and leg wraps are Norse as well, but Im not well versed on the historical accuracy of their cut/style.

Tablet weaving itself has been around for much longer, back to at least the 800s bc afaik so its not specific to any one culture, but im definitely trying to emulate a viking style of dress.

Nice, new mega right after I finish my latest project, perfect timing! As usual, spoiler just to keep the spam down:

belt timeHeres the whole belt, its about 56in/1.4m in length, which is on the shorter side of my belts, but since I used some of the lenght to make trimmings for my tunic's cuffs it makes sense. It works fine as a belt as well, not too short or long.

Pattern close up

Heres the back, non-reversible unfortunately but thats not a big deal.

And here it is with my tunic. I love the way it matches with the trim, it works perfectly. It works better with the black tunic vs just the white one, but together they work best since the trim is on the white one. Most of my belts are going to be presents for Yule but I'm keeping this one for myself.

(inappropriate use of a penannular brooch here, but it holds really well and looks nice)

FTL is a classic. One of the best indie games of all time.

Nope, sorry. I dont really know anyone else who weaves, Im not active in any circles I just work on my own. And as far as tablet weaves go I dont know of any stores on etsy that sell anything with pride themed patterns either.

There are a lot of pride themed patterns on https://twistedthreads.org/, like this one, or you can just modify the colors of a pattern you like, but tablet weaving is a lot of effort for something thats gonna be as small as a lanyard.

 

Idk if anyone else will be interested in this but I got sick of all the uploads of the longship songs from AC Valhalla being low quality, so I recorded them myself and made them into a little album. The official soundtracks "The Weft of Spears" and "The Wave of Giants" they released do have Old Norse versions of most of these songs but they never released the English versions as well. They're a little odd, and the Old Norse lyrics definitely fit better meter/rhythm wise, but I really loved these versions so I wanted to be able to listen to them like normal songs.

I also uploaded higher quality and slightly better mixed MP3 and OGG files on Mega if anyone wants those: https://mega.nz/folder/QIQmRRRL#IIR6FPoxvrcksHPFecf6ew

Thank you! Its one I've been working on for a while. I made two strips that I cut off from the rest of the warp a while ago and Im just now getting around to finishing the rest.

spoilerI could not disagree less. There was a ton of tension after that lol. That scene literally sets the tone for the film, it makes it more tense.
