5 Things for Paitac!

[livejournal.com profile] paitac's prompt was:
five things Arthur hides before Merlin shows up to clean in the mornings

Here is what I came up with. Hope you like it :)


1. Brooch

2. Figurine

3. Vial

4. Code of Camelot

5. Neckerchief

I had LOADS of fun doing these. I had to take photos of the drawings because the scanner was unavailable (infuriating!scanner is infuriating)... I've never loved PS so much.
I had to do a bit of research for the first two pieces because I had no idea what a brooch looked like in 6th century Britain: the ring-y type seemed to be the most common. As for the horse figurine, toys were made out of wood (and they could be nailed to a wheeled tablet to carry them around) or clay. I went the wood way because Arthur's a prince and wood was more valuable. I also broke one of its ears, because I wanted it to look like it was well used, but I don't know if it's clear of not...
Anyway... Hope you enjoy them!


And now on to the last prompt...

Oh, if any of you wants to prompt me again, you can. I'm on a roll....

I'm so glad you like them! :D I'm starting to think of Arthur as a Big Closet Sap.
I ask you: the 5 plants Merlin brought to Arthur's rooms
