Comment on Mixed metal jewelry 6 by Astalo
I have probably some gear butterflies in my next uploads. Maybe also some scarab beetles if everything goes well.
Scarabs are what I carve when I don't feel like carving anything. It's something I can do without much concentration, like when I'm watching a movie or something similar. I'd really like to see any Scarabs you make, and also Butterflies. Will your Scarabs be made of metal-scraps, spoons, & gears, or will you carve them from wood, Bone, or stone?
I have always liked that classic egyptian style for open wing scarabs, so I probably put engraved silver or nickel silver spoon head for the middle and use splitted gears for the wings. Maybe also some small brass nails for legs and some kind of structure under the spoon what keeps all pieces together.
I Imagine that would look rather nice. Let Me Know when you post it!
Ok.
