Heh, neat. Glad somebody liked it. Been considering making a "sequel" of sort, either an ogryn or an ork. Let's see if I ever do that.

Hey, I gots kind of an odd question for you. I'm assuming you know Swedish, since dA tells me you are from Sweden. Do you know what the words "Byssan Lull" mean in English? I understand that it's the name of a traditional Swedish folk song, but do you know what the name would translate to in English?

eismcsqrd In reply to codecyros [2010-02-27 19:59:33 +0000 UTC]

thanks anyway!

EvilJoel In reply to codecyros [2009-12-03 02:30:19 +0000 UTC]

Luckily for you, I'm not only swedish but also a translator wannabe.

Byssan lull is a swedish lullaby, correct. The words themselves don't actually mean anything, as far as I know. It's possible that they're old, forgotten words, but it's probably just nonsense that's made up to make it rhyme.
The song itself is one of my favorites, though. Here, I'll translate the first verse for you (the only one I know the lyrics of, really):

Byssan lull, boil the kettle full
three wanderers are coming down the road
Byssan lull, boil the kettle full
three wanderers are coming down the road
The first is so lame [i.e. he's limbing]
The second is so blind
and the third one has tattered clothing

Just curious, why are you asking?

codecyros In reply to EvilJoel [2009-12-03 04:03:15 +0000 UTC]

Ha, very cool. I just got the game Lucidity on Steam recently, and the title theme is a version of Byssan Lull sung by Lisa Eriksson. I really loved the song so I just did some research on it, but I couldn't find a translation of the actual name of the song, just the lyrics. So yeah, thanks for the info!

EvilJoel In reply to codecyros [2010-02-24 23:42:56 +0000 UTC]

I had completely forgotten about this conversation when I picked up the demo myself today, and shat bricks when I heard a Swedish lullaby in a Lucasarts game. Too bad the game felt like a prettied-up Lemlings, but still.

EvilJoel In reply to codecyros [2009-02-22 16:48:22 +0000 UTC]

Thank you kindly, I'm very much looking forward to it. Thanks for the watch as well.

Not sure if you need it or not, but this is pretty much the griffin design I had in mind. More or less, the "real" griffins in Podsol are more reptilian and only four limbs, not six, but real-life heraldy always played loose with biological accuracy too. Even if you don't use this stock (if you have a better idea, I encourage you to do it your way instead.) the rest of that site has some useful "clip-art" and letters and stuff.

I could have used this last night! What I will probably do is an ornate version, like a metal crest on a gate, and then a simple version, like something you would find on a letter.
