which Aengus O'Nolan hath displayed in the science of woodworking and
bow making, wish to recognize him as a Companion of Our Order of the Silver
Oak. We grant unto him all rights and responsibilities attendant upon this rank

Sketched with mechanical pencil and inked with metal tipped dip quill pen using India ink.
Close up of Silver Oak. Never done one of these before and seemed a bit odd drawing this tree. I'm happy with the result, but still think that it is an odd looking badge.
Recipient has a Viking persona so I chose to do the scroll in Runes. I wasn't at the presenting so I hope that idea was OK with him.
Painted the border with gouache paint
