I finished another one. I really like the colored pencil piece but I did a bad job on the silver part and had lots of issues that I ran into. Mostly because I didn’t plan well. I’m not one to draw things out, I design as I go and it usually works out but in this case, not so much. One of the rivets got too close to the bail and I had a hard time hammering it without bending the tube bail. Then I used a dull drill bit on the bottom hole. It kind of mushed the silver around and left a rim. It’s hard to fix problems like these after I set the colored piece and sometimes working on it further just makes it worse.
The colored piece is raised off the silver 1mm. It’s hard to tell in the picture. I didn’t take a picture of the back as it’s too ugly to show. Guess I’m keeping this one for myself. Bummer. đŸ™‚
