So this particular scroll was for the wonderful Insulae Draconis. I sorta like the Principality awards, mostly because they're new and different and I generally get to play about like a schoolchild when I do them. This one was particularly fun. I don't think i have ever painted so many shields with arms upon them. In order: Drachenwald, Insulae Draconis, Harpelstane, Ffraid and then space was left for the Arms of the Recipient.
The source was mostly from the University of Oxford, MS Top Glouc D 2 Folio 15 Recto. It was delightful to find that when I couldn't find the source agin using google fu, that it was convieniently blazoned across the top of the images. I used the other image for some of the background imagery.
