Copper and steel. I am real happy with it.

He appears to have disdain for the rising sun..

Lots of fun and thanks for looking. 

His disdain is just delightful, as is the whole piece! Well done Rojo!

I love how that turned out. Nice work Rojo.

Delightful is as good a term for that as I can think of Pedro. What's next in the series, Jupiter, Saturn, or?

Very nice. I like it.

  You are creating a Celestial Cosmos...:)  Wonderful, inspiring work Rojo.  Thanks for sharing it with us, I look forward to what comes next.

Thanks all. It sure was fun to make.

I think I have found my favorite medium in copper. 

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.
