Malarbor says: Today is 5000 ASC - five thousand days since the foundation of this sector of micronationalism. That's almost fourteen years. So congratulations. We're like a sixth of the way to having wasted our lives! Anyone who wants to party should drop into #micronations and give congratulations/condolences to the folks there.

The new millennium is beginning on a higher note for some of us than others, with David Bergsdrumfort getting engaged yesterday. Congratulations, David! Slightly more political but still encouraging - the talks on the peaceful reunification of Shireroth and West Elwynn are proceeding apace, or in some cases even better than apace. The main obstacle now seems to be the legalities of merging Imperial States in a constitutionally correct manner.

At home things are unusually quiet, perhaps because the Kaiseress is off on holiday. Mar Sara took the silver in hockey, leaving behind a mixture of disappointment and of joy that they made it as far as they did. The Landsraad may finally vote on the long-tabled and much-maligned proposal to quit the Bastion. And Gilles Melang's attempts to get a stock market running in Shireroth have been met with what can only be called an indifference almost violent in its intensity.

In foreign news, the rogue state of Wahlstadt made some new enemies recently by murdering former Kaiser-turned-human-rights-activist Elijah Ayreon, a deed so foul that the repercussions forced them to flee the fledgling Dominion and seek the protection of Jingdao. Elijah's relatives in Natopia have recovered his body for a proper burial, but the actions have produced a chill in relations even more than usual for heavily-Balkanized Cibola.

Five thousand years hence, will such atrocities at last be a thing of the past? Will the Benacian Question be resolved? Will Mar Sara be four thousand nine hundred ninety nine time consecutive undefeated hockey champions? MALARBOR DEMANDS YOU STAY AND FIND OUT!

Seals (not those seals...) and Stationery for the Vizierates of the Kingdom of Babkha. Scope of work as yet undetermined, willing to work with HollyCorp towards development of full requirement and specification, and most importantly for the contractor... fees.

You've come to the right place! HollyCorp will be more than happy to serve you for a sizable fee, of course.

Could you provide some additional information about your needs? Which Vizierates need seals created? Do you have any ideas regarding their design?

Also, do you have any symbols in mind for the Vizierates? For example, what should represent the Vizierate of War?

Okay - each Vizierate would feature the chosen emblem of the regime, the Faravahar as an avatar of Zurvan contemplating an orchid.

Image


and the culturally appropriate implement of the vizierate's respective trade. So for instance the Vezârat-e Jang (Vizierate of War) would feature crossed scimitars and or assault rifles, if a skull or pyramid of skulls could be worked in that would be splendid also.

The Vizierate of the Harmonious Society would ideally be a quill and ink-pot with crossed cudgels (or police batons).

The Imperial Divan, since it includes the administration of the Imperial Household should ideally feature a scaled down copy of the Royal Crest:

Image


If we could perhaps consider including farsi translations (care of google translate) that would also be excellent.

In each of the three instances a stylised Sun, if feasible would make a suitable background to the seals.

Many thanks for your reply.

I will take your thoughts into consideration as I begin these designs. First, I will need to "vectorize" the Faravahar so that the final product doesn't look like raster vomit.

I will post here when that is completed. :)

EDIT: Actually, I spoke too soon. It appears the delightful chaps over at Wikipedia have saved me an hour or two of mindless clicking.

Is this the right image?

Outstanding. That's just fantastic.

I have an idea for the style of escutcheon to be used in these designs (I imagine you'd like these seals to have a uniform shape, yes?).

What do you think of this shape?

I request a seal for the Bet Erasmus with four variations:

1. Plain family seal.
2. Royal Batavian seal.
3. Ducal Southbatavian seal.
4. Seal for ministers.

Please contact me via pb if interested.

We at Commonwealth Global are most impressed with the work above. :up1: We also have an offer that you might be interested in, Wythe. I have sent you a PM about it.

I've just started work on theses seals. I'll post an update with a proposal sometime this weekend.

Gilles- I appreciate your kind words. I've read your PM and I'll think about it. :)

I'm sorry! I didn't mean to ignore you it's just that I've been busy and forgot to reply. :)

I'm very interested in working with you. Please accept my apologies for not responding in a timely manner. :oops:

This is my proposal for the Vizierate of War. Do you have any comments about the design?

It looks much more menacing on the black-hearted background of Shireroth!

A suitable place for Babkhan War to be declared...


This is excellent work.
