I do alot of cross stitch and am thinking of making something where the piece will be encased in clear resin (acrylic or epoxy). I've seen quite a few projects where rocks, shells, or other mementos have been encased in resin, but not a fabric/cross stitch project. Does anyone have anyone have any advice for making sure the project turns out well? On to what should I mount the cross stitch? Will cardboard or foam core board work? How do I make sure there are no air bubbles in it? Are there any problems with color transfer from the fabric or floss to the resin? Have you every done such a project?Thank you very much!
it relies upon on the knight, who and what he or she develop into struggling with for, and what symbols and footage represented those causes. i'm quite positive maximum protect pictures were the symbols of certain kingdoms, or only the king and queen presiding over such. different symbols ought to've represented guilds of renegade knights that pertained to no kingdoms. i'm quite positive that maximum knights' shields did not have designs, in spite of the undeniable fact that. i imagine they were extra in contact with how solid and sturdy they could be in strive against, quite than how quite they were. besides, i wager it may've been quite severe priced to pay an artist to paint quite some shields, decrease back then. they could've been hand-executed, and if the knights hailed from a wealthy kingdom, then there may've been 1000's of shields to paint. paint which may've chipped off quick, after being hacked and smashed many times by enemy guns. in short, it is like i reported in the previous, relies upon on the knight, and what kingdom they fought for.
The reason they put images or designs on the shields want to look pretty. Everyone back then wanted the most stylish shields. Compare it to women's hair. But really, it was a way to tell apart each other or too look mighty. I'm pretty sure the farther up the line military wise you'd get a cooler looking shield. Like ace paints on airplanes in WWII.
The designs on the knight's shields were heraldry, or designs used to distinguish knights in battle and tournaments. The heraldry was used almost like a flag, showing family history, or sometimes representing whole kingdoms. A standard with the symbol on it was a very important part of battles etc, serving as a signal and rallying point. that's pretty brief, there's a lot of info out there about heraldry, just google it for more info. Hope that helped!
Maybe you can get around the problem of presenting a visual aid since blackholes are technically invisible and therefor impossible to illustrate. A blackhole is usually represented as a an extreme curvature of space in which matter can be seen spinning near the surface of the hole before passing through the even horizon to God knows where.
Well you got all of the reasons but just not in the same answer. Identification - Typically they had their personal symbol as well as the unit symbol (normally their commander's heraldry) Depends on which knights at which times and whether they were wearing uniforms. Latter knights would have some sort of uniform freeing them from the need for unit identification on their shield. Earlier knights sometimes had no personal identification. The lower ranked they were the less likely they were to have a heraldry on their shield. The ancient battlefield was chaotic and often you were mixing with soldiers you met just a few days before you fought with them or even people you'd fought against in the past but this week your lord and their lord were allies, next week you might be fighting each other again. The armies were comprised of leaders bringing their own men who supplied their own weapons, supplies, armor etc. It wasn't until late in the dark ages that knights started wearing uniforms for identification of friend and foe. It was also an intimidation factor. A really well done shield was usually a wealthy and skilled warrior as they'd survived long enough and earned the right for an elaborate heraldry. Newer knights painted a quick symbol often on the even of battle to identify themselves and used otherwise plain shields. Men at arms often did not have the right to put anything personal on their shields. That was often reserved only for knights. Especially if those shields were issued out of the armory of some Knight. So by the shield you knew who was on who's side. You often knew who it was, this was especially important as battle in that time often left the dead unrecognizable. By seeing their shield you knew who's body lay under it even if there was no face or the head had been removed and rolling around on the battlefield somewhere. Last it helped people establish reputations.
