The traditional wooden spoons are back...
Theme this year from the amazing Mrs Denham for Mortiem et Gloriam

They're for godlike playin* genius!

Plus, on the very first ones, I made a spelling mistake. It stuck.

Very clever. Unfortunately the concept of the wooden spoon is not something I think is acknowledged over here (the US). But were it so, I could see doing one for the local Leg of the GBnUIT and I might just do it anyway, as it looks like it would be fun to paint up a spoon with each year's theme painted on it.

I just noticed the title. Is it a Dark Ages comp, with lots of Angles and Saxons screaming for their chief god :D

Is the Renaissance bloke Wallenstein, or is it Tilly? Having a guess without looking it up.

Initially I had assumed it was King Charles 1st but then thought of Gustavus too, so googled him and found ...

Agreed. It's very well done and captures all of the essential elements to let you know who it is supposed to be.  =D>
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
