[split] Designing the glyph system

[ololololo]

If you compare the drawings of Herbal A and Herbal B, you can see differences in the style of the plant drawings, the coloring (which is sometimes more bold than necessary in Herbal B), and sometimes the size (which may be due to the scribe's small handwriting. He drew large plants to fill the page).

I recall that this topic was discussed several months ago.  But I would like to object, your honor. Which is the proper thread?

This discussion must have passed me by 
In general, I believe that scribes (either hired or authors) could draw and even color their illustrations. In my opinion, the style of these illustrations is very similar between A and B.
It is possible that scribe B did not have a good imagination when it came to creating plants, as he copied his own illustrations.
For example, sunflowers: f33v-f40v-f50r; one-sided plants: f31r-f31v-f46r; also f39v-f40r and f31r-f43r (look at flowers).

Was that based on the same results of Koen and Cary, or an independent observation?

I don't know how independent it is, but I came to these conclusions on my own
