Re: Gun Case Oval
Your work is always outstanding Phil. On this particular piece it appears as though gold was inlaid into a black metal of some sort instead of background having been removed and blackened. What is the size of this piece?
Thanks for showing, Gene |

Re: Gun Case Oval
It's about 3.5 inches long.
It's steel,Richard St.Ledger coloured it, I think he heated it up in salt! Phil |

Re: Gun Case Oval
Gee wiz Phil
Just when I start to get arrogant and cocky you have to go and post something like this and ruin it all for me.:smilie5: Very nicely done. Great job with the choices on the color arrangement as well as the design and cutting, Ray |

Re: Gun Case Oval
Beautiful piece Phil, and so rich in color!
Do you recall how many metals/alloys you used on this medallion? I'm working on developing a color palette for a gun project and any recommendations you have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tim |

Re: Gun Case Oval
Thank you Phil,
I love the effect you achieve with the mix. Also, I can appreciate how labor intensive this can be. I hope my efforts turn out as nice. Thanks again, Tim |

Re: Gun Case Oval
Like Ray says, just when you think you are doing pretty good along comes a masterpiece to put you in your place. Mine seems to be twards the bottom of the heap right now. Good job Phil.
