I haven't glued anything down yet, and he is a royal heraldic tyger. Thoughts?[Poll #1679072]

um, yeah...

You certainly are insane enough to be a pastry chef...

But the EK arms came out so nice. They are drying right now and will go under the raised paw once I get to CT.

Is he pizzled?

[alysten.livejournal.com]

Not yet... I figure I can add the pizzle in CT.

I bravely resisted voting "Pudding!" (my usual choice), in favor of Crown! ;-)

Looks fabulous!!

[femkederoas.livejournal.com]

BTW - please try not to get Laureled before April 9 - I would probably have a much harder time talking them around to that.

[alysten.livejournal.com]

Oooooo. We should have pudding for Dieperlen.

[alysten.livejournal.com]

Me??? Im not even a kingdom level anything yet. No fear of that here. :D

[greenness.livejournal.com]

Perhaps you could borrow the sword of state for under his paw too!

[alysten.livejournal.com]

ooooooooo.... I still have sugar and time. Do we have a picture of the sword of state?

[greenness.livejournal.com]

I meant the REAL sword of state!
I don't have a picture though, so you're safe. ;)

[alysten.livejournal.com]

That would be even more hilarious.

[femkederoas.livejournal.com]

Yeah... that won't last very long.

[math5.livejournal.com]

I wanted to go for Crown, but couldn't resist pudding.

[baronernst.livejournal.com]

The sword of state looks like a sword.

I resisted pudding and went for crown but it was close, very close.

Don't get me wrong

[bytchearse.livejournal.com]

I do not question the beauty of the art, merely the sanity of the artisan...

[kragore.livejournal.com]

Hrm. I resisted the pull of Pudding and voted Crown - I like Sparky better that way aesthetically - but whenever I see Sparky portrayed around the kingdom (say, on our helmets for example) he's crown-less.
I think in this context he's better with crown, if he's going to be viewed with other regalia.

Having seen the sword of state and done some google noodling - it's a sword - 14th century broadsword in style - I'll try to dig up a picture - I think we have one from Ed and Meg's Excellent Adventure.

And FYI - a piece of advice I got from someone - (paraphrased) "If you don't want to be recognized, you'd better stop what you're doing." ;)

And yet... it keeps me out of trouble and if Im going to do something, my inner me has to be happy. I cannot do something only 1/2 way. I suspect you might be of the same mind. :D

and if you can find a picture for sos, I will definitely add that. :D

I might grant you that I 'may' not be completely 'sane'. ;)

Re: um, yeah...

[handymonkey]

The arms go under the raised paw? Like, the Eastern Tyger is about to walk all over the Eastern arms under?

Re: um, yeah...

[alysten.livejournal.com]

More like he is holding them. Like one of the Foo Dog, the whole Kingdom is under his protection.

Though I may just leave the arms there on the board and put the sword of state in that paw.

This is a pretty good shot of it, I think - I'm still looking for a picture of the KRC holding it, because then I'd be certain it's the right one....

I've gone through all the pictures I can in a short amount of time, and I'm pretty sure that's it - all other pictures are rather fuzzy and indistinct though - but the shape is right.

Heeeeyyy....I recognize that picture.

;-)

You beat me to posting it too. :-p

This one:

Sorta...
