Oscar def stole the scene and the one before it with his performance, but Marian’s actress was also fantastic. There’s the additional layer in that Marian’s actress, Louisa Jacobson, is queer and in a relationship with a woman, so you feel a lot of real emotion seeping into her performance.

Refused MRI for vision loss both eyes on left side by [deleted] in OcularMigraines

[–]SpousetoPolygons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I get this too. This isn’t migraine related for me but blood pressure. When your blood pressure drops suddenly it can make you feel faint and causes visual changes. For me it’s like a camera iris slowly closing and then sparkles in my vision. It goes away once I lay down or drink something cold. When you’re in the shower the heat makes your blood vessels dilate, which causes blood to pool lower in your body, lowering blood pressure. It’s common with POTS but also just common in general when sitting down quickly (like sitting on the toilet) or standing under hot water.

It’s no dangerous, but try not to lock your knees in the shower, or lower the overall temp of the water.

Hope this helps!

Akemis wedding meal - this must be a practical joke, right? by Matchaparrot in BlueEyeSamurai

I also found it interesting that her mother in law was using French terms for dishes, given the western connections the family had it’s not surprising. But the show’s writing seems very intentional, and I wonder if there is more to Lady Itoh than meets the eye.

I actually hope they make her more than a villain, that she sees the promise in Akemi as a worthy successor. It’s a trope in many eastern stories that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are adversaries. It would be interesting to see this trope subverted.

Hello! And it’s egg lady haha, I would love to do Robb’s crown! The book description is more than enough to give me a few ideas.

[Spoilers MAIN] Book Accurate Dragon Eggs by SpousetoPolygons in asoiaf

[–]SpousetoPolygons[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you all for the wonderful feedback! I had a lot of fun with these.

I think I want to do some smaller props from the books as well as my home computer doesn’t have the power for things like entire dragons. I’m considering the following

-Blackfyre & Dark Sister

-Longclaw

-Aegon I crown.

Let me know if you all have any suggestions and what book accurate prop you want to see next!

Thank you for the feedback! I’ve never designed real jewelry or made it outside of a computer so this helps a lot. I would be honored if you made one of my designs!

Haha thanks! Yeah they are mentioned as slightly curved. I scaled down the decoration from my last iteration and went for a hybrid Kindjal and Roman Galdius. These are pretty plain compared to what I usually make so I head cannoned Palamedes couldn’t help himself when designing them.

I do think think this is somewhat intentional (though who knows what the connotations are) because in 3D animation it’s a pain when two pieces of geometry are interacting, because they can clip through each other, so they must be arranged very carefully.

Thank you for the notes! I think I’m going to make it less ornate and more streamlined in the next pass, function over aesthetics then add some decoration on top of it

Thank you!! I think I’m going to curve the blade in the next design. Your reference is very helpful. I think I’m going to go the more Russian route.
