dinning set
« on: 2012-04-11, 18:19:22 »
Well here is my entire dinning set as of this moment. Im looking to add a few additions very soon and a small change. Yet I felt as though the table could look presentable for photos to be taken.

Let me know what you guys think. I will be getting a correct reproduction table soon, This table is just in my dinning room for quick photos

Also period accurate for a trencher would be a large square piece of stale bread!  mmmmm!!!  Serves double-duty, trencher for you, and then because you're a kindhearted land-owner, it's dinner for some poor sap who works your land that your kitchen staff dumps it on later!

oh yeah, had that lotsa times!! hehehe

but one needs to watch what type of person he is portraying. in the 15thc its all about status and who has it and who doesn't. who's in a retainer/retinue and who was called up to fight from that retinue.

That looks pretty good. The lack of consistently sized and shaped glasses keeps it from looking too modern.
