Assembled this magnet helm crest from using a wooden falcon I painted and hot branded.  Magnet mule helm crest. Not much work in in this it was an old hood ornament  but darn funny.  Helm crest painted to look like the Calontir Equestrian badge.  Ise's pennon banner on the left. Sato's pennon on the right.  This is a shield Sethrun made for the new Equestrian champion of Three Rivers. Not our project but figured I would share it since it so cool. And since Ise is the first to carry it as the Champion of Three Rivers. He did a great job making this.  Close up on Order of Lazurus Chamfron on Molly made by Sato Close up on Huscarl.Fyrd Chamfron on Buttons For the William the Marshal event Ise completed 9 Lazurus tabards and 4 Lazarus horse bards.

2009 update -Ise completed a new jester hood for my Otas rig.  At the same time I completed a new chain to replace the one seen below. A new belt with brass diamonds and brass Calontir crosses on it. And matching new blue gloves.     2008 - Ise riding Kate in her Falcon colors.  Ise did an awesome job making Kate's barding and the matching garb for herself.  Well it took weeks of work and little sleep but we got most of our gear done for Horse and Falcon. I rode as Otas the Jester and Buttons my mule was dressed in Jester barding. Kris rode in Calontir colors or purple gold and falcons with matching barding for her mule..    Dave and Buttons holding Ise's ring lance. Ise did a great job making the motley costume for Otas and Buttons match. And fit correctly enough that buttons rode well in it.      We made a rings lance for each of us in our colors. A throwing spear in each our colors. 1 quintain lance in jester colors and 1 ground spear in Ise's colors. Each of us had a sword and scabbard to hang from our saddles. Ise's scabbard was purple and had falcons all the way down it. And Otas's had multi color diamonds.   We also made the purple and gold weapons rack and a shield for the tourney tree with each of our devices. I made a new device to use as Otas's device.    Weapons up close Top pf weapons rack Falcon and Lilies belt Sato made for Ise for her birthday to go   Lance Post and rings we made.  Rings for the lance stand Jesters knights belt and Jester knights chain  Falcon tabard Ise made to match her mule barding  with her outfit
