Nothing. But that is because I'm doing illustrations right now instead!
I actually had to do some research recently to find some images of the Roman spatha sword, a longer bladed sword than the Roman gladius. And, I had to pull out my books with pictures of Viking swords so I could decide which Viking sword to draw.
Next up, Viking armour and shields.
Good thing I have a decent arms and armour library; I'm making good use of it. _________________ "I'm going to do what the warriors of old did. I'm going to recite poetry!"

Life with Genghis Khan! What was life like living within the "Mongol Horde"? When you upset Genghis Khan, what happened? Fun stuff! _________________ Douglas E. Gogerty

Not exactly my latest project, although one I'm starting to formulate. But I'm researching the geological history of the prairies. _________________ Harker: ...I sometimes write stories.

I'm in desperate need of a sit-down with an astronomer for my current project. I need to figure out what the sun is doing on different parts of my planet at different times of the year. _________________ Violet "Violanthe" Kane
