A little scroll stand I built for my ongoing MOC.
I also took the opportunity to start using Bricklink Studio, so here are the instructions!
This is a 2.5Qt bowl with a clear glass dome lid, and a brass-colored warmer stand with white rubber handles. Includes the original box and paperwork.

I admit to still being completely enthralled by the shapes and patterns in the smoke. I had no idea...

I still have a ton of screenshots from my old playthrough that I'm going to upload before I start showing WIPs of this NPC overhaul, but it's going to be up eventually! I'm only partway throught darkelves(going by race) so I got a ways to go to cover everyone.
The inscription on the tabula reads:
SABINO CO(n)IVGI
QUI VIXIT
ANN(os) XLIIII
M(enses) X D(ies) XIII
B(ene) M(erenti) IN PACE
“To Sabinus, the husband, who lived forty-four years, ten months, thirteen days, the man of merit, in peace”. The formula “IN PACE” refers the Peace in Christ.
The rectangular casket shows a balanced composition of scenes with Christian themes. In the center, though the inscription speaks of a man, an "orant" female figure is depicted praying between two saints. It is to be concluded that the sarcophagus had not been prepared for Sabinus, for whom it was destined to be used later. According to the inscription carved on the upper border of the casket,
"D(epositus) VI K(alendas) MAI",
Sabinus was buried the 26 April.
On the right side of the continuous frieze decorating the chest there are the miracles of Christ:
A) the healing of the blind man (Mark 10:46—52). Christ, youthful and beardless, holds a scroll in his left hand and touches the eyes of the man with his right. The man is half size. In the background is Peter with a gesture of penitence;
B) Multiplication of the Loaves and Fishes (Matt. 14:13—21), with six (instead of the twelve) baskets that were left, and Christ blessing bread and fish;
C) the Raising of Lazarus (John 11 : 1—44) with the sepulchral “aedicula” forming the right corner of the frieze. Christ touches the mummy’s head with his staff, while the sister of Lazarus kneels before him.
On the left side:
A) the Miracle of Cana (John 2:1—11), with the six stone water jars;
B) Peter, taken prisoner by two men dressed as Roman soldiers with fur caps;
C) Peter’s Water Miracle, which leads to the baptism of his guards in prison.
These last scenes are inspired by the apocryphal Acts of Peter.
The lid is decorated with a small portrait, largely restored, next to a scene depicting a wild boar hunt
This sarcophagus is a good example of early Constantinian single frieze sarcophagi.

I find violin music to be very comforting.
"A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy?"

Strobist Sundays high / low key lighting theme. Macro Mondays comforting theme.
Low key lighting. YN-460 left at 1/8 power, shoot through umbrella. Sigma 70-300 macro lens
Better in light box view. L
To me, the most artistic part of the violin - the scroll.
