November 16, 20241 yr Copper and steel. I am real happy with it. He appears to have disdain for the rising sun.. Here is the back side if anyone is interested. Lots of fun and thanks for looking.
November 16, 20241 yr Delightful is as good a term for that as I can think of Pedro. What's next in the series, Jupiter, Saturn, or? Frosty The Lucky.
November 19, 20241 yr You are creating a Celestial Cosmos... Wonderful, inspiring work Rojo. Thanks for sharing it with us, I look forward to what comes next.
November 23, 20241 yr Author Thanks all. It sure was fun to make. I think I have found my favorite medium in copper.
November 23, 20241 yr Deep draw steel is fun to chase / repousse. Altoid tins are great for learning but Christmas popcorn and cookie tins are nice for large pieces. You have to keep up on annealing though, deep draw is so soft it can be hard to tell when it's work hardening so you crack a lot of pieces learning. I like medium stiffness modeling clay chilled in the fridge for backing. Freezing it is too stiff for any but the finest detail. Frosty The Lucky.
