Got bored, bit off more than I could chew, and made 100 illuminated manuscript icon bases. Take them, cut them up, put text on them, turn them purple, do what you like. Just don't claim that the base is yours. ...not that people tend to say, "Wow, neat icon! Who made the base?"

I don't know why, but as beautiful as they are, they remind me of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Yes, I am crazy.

Oh, you have to see it. If you like anything Monty Python you will absolutely adore this movie.

Impossible. You don't know them in context yet - once you see it, you'll love it. :p

Maybe it's the rabbit one.

To the creator of the icons-- They are beautiful! I might snag some eventually. :) And of course will credit.

It could've been the rabbit one. It reminded me of the chanting monks. *snerk*

"That's no ordinary rabbit!"
"*scoff* One bunny stew, coming right up..."

It was hard to do, but I limited myself to just #9. They are all beautiful, however. Thanks for sharing!

They are very fun! And I actually wound up coming back for a few more. I also took Adam and Eve with the serpent to put the caption "Original OT3!" on it, but that doesn't look right just yet.

Strangely enough, they do. That's why I never stray from the default when posting, just so I can rack up the number of "where'd you get the phoenix" peoples.

Wow... I really like these. Not quite sure what to do with them yet... so I took a bunch in the hope that they would inspire me. Great job!

Wow! These have got to be my dream icons, because I love illuminated manuscripts (I have one in my userinfo, actually). I've taken all but about the last twenty-four, as my computer went wonky when loading the images or something. Thanks!
