Halp! I am in a research quandary
Feb. 28th, 2012 04:16 pmDoes anyone know of good books and/or resources that would explain the technical aspects of the preservation and, more importantly, the restoration of art works? More specifically paintings, but I am not especially picky about the medium if it comes down to it.
I am trying to write a story and realized that my plot kind of hinges on my understanding the ins and outs of how to restore paintings, which I emphatically do not. In fact, this is so far out of my league I don't even know where to start. /o\
Halp? Anyone? Bueller?

Quick canon question
Jan. 2nd, 2011 10:24 pmFlist, how old is Claire Novak? The SupernaturalWiki has failed me.
It's never explicitly stated in The Rapture, but she looks to be 12-13 to me. Can anyone else verify this?

Hunters' Journals: discuss
Oct. 28th, 2010 06:39 pmOkay, so I have a random thought about hunters' journals which has been rattling around in my head ever since Season 1, especially after "Dead Man's Blood" aired.
John has kept a journal for the past twenty-two years when the show starts. Daniel Elkins has a similar journal (and we are given to understand that he was John's mentor, which would explain the similarities), but much older, dating back to the sixties, if memory serves.
Given the amount of lore out there, and the fact that John himself appears to have not only documented his hunts but also at least occasionally used it as a personal journal, how the heck does it all fit into that teeny-tiny book?
Hell, when I'm doing research for a story, I can easily fill a 100-page notebook with my scribblings, and they're not all that extensive.
I would have thought that a hunter would end up with a string of journals, each filled to the brim with clippings, notes, photographs, and scraps of lore.
Can anyone explain this to me in a satisfactory manner? Please?
Or, y'know, feel free to have a debate in the comments.
