The Leper King and his heirs

I also recommend taking a look at his genealogy/family tree!

You can find it and other pertinent trees in the Leper King and his heirs as well.

I saw in comments and messages, both here and on TikTok, that there’s been some new people joining the community, and asking me for pointers on a variety of related subjects, so as a historical divulger since my early teens, I wanted to offer a few of my fav starting places for reading real documents of the time. And others to gain a little perspective of the real side of things.

Add your own sources and resources! I would add more myself, but I don’t have time to look through my 400+ open tabs and remember it all lmaooo but I will update this into a masterlist along the way if u wish :3 (and if you know of better quality alternatives to the ones I’ve linked lmk)

Edit: give me some time and I will sporadically update with my resources. They’re just super scattered and some I just forget about because they’re from ages ago. So I might have to dig.

Seguramente traduciré al español algunos de estos documentos, si están interesados 🤍

Medieval horses: Destriers. This article is not entirely correct, but it makes a half-valid point. I have my own interpretations and theories about destrier types (it is not a horse breed, but a type, therefore, there are many variations). I also have a couple of pics of stocky PRE horses near me that seem like a perfect example of one of those variations.

The saracens typically used mares. The use of geldings for any army was also the norm, however, many (crusaders) also rode stallions, which in battle would get distracted by the mares 🤦🏽‍♀️😂

Facts to take into consideration:

Castles: Typically, get used to forgetting that bare stone look. This could be true for new/hastily constructed castles and fortifications. But established infrastructure would be lime-washed/plastered. Many times painted. Many times colorful. On the inside, too—n they would be decorated, and full of tapestries. The more important a lordship (and where more often the King would pass through (royal castles)) and the more wealthy an area, the more true this would be. Churches would be colorful too. Painted with many motifs and icons. Mosaics can be included in your descriptions in many places too. Some classic Roman or Greek, some Byzantine, some local.

More art for Bibrawayhi (IG), my new muse 🙈

as always, many slightly different versions xD

Why does one of the drawings not have eyes? Lol, well, it looked better without, trust me. 👁️👄👁️ But don’t let his scawwy appearance deceive you, he’s the kindest akhi ever, and it’s like we share the same single brain cell sometimes 💀

Based on his video of the Saudi founding day-Arab warriors 1100s-1700s, on his Alfutuwa group

[baudouinette]

Baldwin hugging Lluna into his bisht right after their Nikkah Ceremony 🩵🩵🩵

(This is a rendered and colored frame from the animatic)

Seems super contradictory with the Jerusalem crosses, but HCW is an interfaith tale after all XD

I tried to animate this two years ago but I hated flipaclip lol

I am also making a comic of the Nikkah hehe this is kinda spoilers, but I can’t help it hihi

I have not been writing, sorta taking a hiatus… I think when I go back to it I will be quite inspired… I have been crushing on someone, someone REAL for once Alhamdulillah, and I am all giddy 😌🤭🫪 so I will hopefully translate this into my writing hhehehe

Commissions opennnn

[baudouinette]

I swear, if I had any money at all, I would be commissioning artists to render/finish rendering and coloring my projects, especially y’all artists within the community/niche…. Bc I am unable to render nowadays, idk how to do it anymore… (and I draw way too many things to realistically finish them all lmao)

idk what colors to use for this, idk how to make them blend in...

⬇️This is an animatic for something that I will not explain here yet, bc spoilers kinda a little haha nothing really major but it’s significative nonetheless, better experienced while reading it within the story itself

⬇️This was funny to me because yes I do take commissions lol and it was such a compliment considering the account is literally named after chain mail XDDDD (I literally just draw crescents for it most of the time HAHAHAHA)

⬆️(Redraw of a Ridleygram….)

Doodles for Bibrawayhi on instagram ✨✨✨💛💛💛

Vizier Salah al-Din ✨ Egypt

Idk why he came out so anime sorry XD

The sword is modeled after the attached pics. Atelier Thibaud made an awesome custom recreation based on it for a client. And the outfit is based on the desc in John Man’s Saladin book.

Been wanting to draw him like that for a while. In another version I was making him wear the helmet, but I had to finish one or the other.

I’m not good at drawing horses even though I’m a former equestrian 💀 lk the way of holding the reins is diff.

I literally fell asleep while finishing this so there may be more errors lol like i could have added Fatimid flags idk (i just really wanted to add his, even tho he had not established his dynasty quite yet >:3 hehe)

some quick context from wiki because i don't have time to write it myself xD

"The reasoning behind the Shia caliph al-Adid's selection of Saladin, a Sunni, varies. Ibn al-Athir claims that the caliph chose him after being told by his advisers that "there is no one weaker or younger" than Saladin (💀💀💀), and "not one of the emirs [commanders] obeyed him or served him". However, according to this version, after some bargaining, he was eventually accepted by the majority of the emirs. Al-Adid's advisers were also suspected of promoting Saladin in an attempt to split the Syria-based Zengids. Al-Wahrani wrote that Saladin was selected because of the reputation of his family in their "generosity and military prowess". Imad ad-Din wrote that after the brief mourning period for Shirkuh, during which "opinions differed", the Zengid emirs decided upon Saladin and forced the caliph to "invest him as vizier". Although positions were complicated by rival Muslim leaders, the bulk of the Syrian commanders supported Saladin because of his role in the Egyptian expedition, in which he gained a record of military qualifications.

Inaugurated as vizier on 26 March, Saladin repented "wine-drinking and turned from frivolity to assume the dress of religion", according to Arabic sources of the time. Having gained more power and independence than ever before in his career, he still faced the issue of ultimate loyalty between al-Adid and Nur ad-Din. Later in the year, a group of Egyptian soldiers and emirs attempted to assassinate Saladin, but having already known of their intentions thanks to his intelligence chief Ali ibn Safyan, he had the chief conspirator, Naji, Mu'tamin al-Khilafa—the civilian controller of the Fatimid Palace—arrested and killed. The day after, 50,000 Black African soldiers from the regiments of the Fatimid army opposed to Saladin's rule, along with Egyptian emirs and commoners, staged a revolt. By 23 August, Saladin had decisively quelled the uprising, and never again had to face a military challenge from Cairo."

Kingdom of Heaven music replacer mod for Stronghold Crusader Definitive Edition

Download from my NexusMods

It only replaces 12 tracks, listed in the description. I can perhaps change more in the future, but I did not want it to be a full overhaul. For example, I did not replace Dar Meshq and Sandalmaker and do not intend to, as they are too iconic :3

I cannot add it to the Steam Workshop as it only accepts Castle and Lord Editor modifications for now afaik.

Idk why the frame rate so bad in this recording 💀 wouldn’t it be awesome if I also changed the loading screen for Baldwin tho? 😅😂

This came about because I always thought Burning the Past matched the original loading music. And I have used Crusaders for the menu to match the menu of the KoH blu-ray :D

⚠️To install this mod please first install UML - Ultimate Mod Loader for SHC:DE by suschisworld to add it through there so that your original game files are safe and not overwritten

A collab with @sofbestart ! Who did the awesome sketch of our girls Lilly and Lluna a while ago 😅 (and draws amazinglyyyyy), and I just colored it in some weeks ago 💕

The outfit she gave Lluna reminded me of Jackie Kennedy’s pink suit, so I made it into that lol

@sofbestart also made the first fanart of Lluna ! Here , which I am still obsessed with and which inspired me to try to draw comic panels and be less scared of them 🤩

Art for Bibrawayhi, Arab reenactor on instagram (right)

I’ve been working on the Saladin brainstorm concepts for a while now [these are just some of the armored or non-casual looks], but i have to pass them to Photoshop because my ipad won’t allow for more layers on this canvas size, and I need the canvas to be larger to add more text lol

[baudouinette]

Once again with these completely random comments that I get… lol

I dislike it sm when people throw unsolicited criticism like this, which like I say, does not apply in this case, where the critic clearly has not interpreted the piece's intention correctly. And this just hits like backhanded compliments--like that other person who was basically calling me a sinner and degenerate for 'sexualizing' Baldwin in a joke (a joke literally about fictional Baldwin), preceding with a 'i love your art but--'. And also when you make one little question and the other person assumes you directly know nothing at all and starts treating you patronizingly 💀💀 Ofc I do not know EVERYTHING--I do not mean that, just be considerate and don't sound like a Sheldon Cooper that's all💀 There was this one person who only commented in my JFK stories to try to correct me, but always failed XD (said 'JFK's middle name was Francis, not Fitzgerald' FRANCIS IS HIS BROTHER'S!! or 'JFK's hair color was *X* this description you made is wrong' 😭

lemme sound ☝️🤓 now in return ok.... to the people who are anti-mask towards the subject of Baldwin not just because he did not actually wear one irl, but because you also think it is entirely anachronistic or looks “too detailed” or “well-made” for the time….. I have news for you.

these are just some examples :3

// still working on my v.1/test mask for the Sims 4. Not properly uv unwrapped or baked yet. The weird vertices are from applying the decimate modifier because I was using one with a lot of subdivisions—even tho it was a low poly design xD (not detailed around the eyes for example, like not a defined eyelid to avoid too many vertices, that's why it's not very pretty (and the shape was adapted to the face shape of the base Sim). Still might go back to one of the versions that were not subdivided. But imma use this as a test 🎭 And I’m going for a more matte look which I think works best for the sims, all the other textures I tried were too reflective and don’t match the look of the sims imo, maxis that is. / also working on a Stronghold Crusader DE music mod 🧚🏼‍♀️

Quant Amors Trobet Partit x Kingdom of Heaven ⚔️

I’m such a procrastinator that I have only just edited what I wanted to edit ten years ago, in high school. And it’s not even the full song xD The Last Stand edit (the current upload is from 2019, but the original upload was actually from 2016) always got me so pumped back then lol so I wanted to make my own with the Kerak scene but with this song 🥰

In the original lyrics and other versions this is included:

«Peirols, maint amic partran

De lurs amiguas ploran

Que si Saladis no fos

Sai remazeran joios. »

= «Peirol, many lovers will depart, weeping, from their ladies who would stay here and be joyful if it were not for Saladin.»

The language is trobador Old Occitain, what was frequently used for chansons and chansonettes, even by those Franks who were not Occitan. 💛💛💛 That’s why I use it in HCW sometimes.

And for example, Richard the Lionheart wrote in both d’Oil French and d’Oc 🦁

“The poem was composed following the fall of Jerusalem in October 1187 (see lines 37-39) to the forces of Saladin (see line 52) and while conflict (30-32) and fighting (43) between the kings (32) of England and France (who had taken the cross in the period late September 1187 to January 1188) were delaying their departure for the Holy Land.” - rialto.unina.it

Mandatory regular reblog

I read a lot of things each day, and since it is too much, I tend to forget or be too lazy to add it here, organized and everything. But,

I added some things like Armor guides of Saracens, and crusaders in 3 Google Drive files all linked together. (It’s the PDF after the crusader bible)

Also Armenian armor guides, with medieval Armenian art and manuscripts as reference, and other resources, it’s a page with many links, where you can find Byzantine and Arab (and other) resources as well.

A bit more info on the Holy Sepulcher edicule. And a bit more on horses.

I added my Kennedy stories (JFK, RFK), if anyone is interested in that as well.

I will be adding more these days, so I thought to reblog as a reminder to check every once in a while. I might add a video game guide, and like tutorials??

Sibylle sticker / icon ✨💅🏻💕🗡️🔪

Based on the first scene of her and Guy together in Heaven Can’t Wait, where she sneaks up on Guy and jestingly threatens his neck with a dagger. Seeing him is like “I gotta slay… with my kohl eyeliner” (I made their relationship more like irl in HCW). I made the dagger a bit Armenian inspired, but I had to keep the blade straight like in the original drawing to make sense. Original “template” is made by “linich”(?)
