First Steampunk cast

[papaturner]

These are my first steampunk casts thanks to the guidance of reddwil on the steampunk Fred Wissen for great molds and Don Ward on casting bubble free.
Comments welcome and thanks for looking.BTW I did actually do the pouring:biggrin:

Very nice.

Nice work Perry! I especially like the first one with the shield.

Very nicely done. If I may ask, where did you get the little cross. I've found small charms and things in the craft stores but they are always made of pot metal and simply can't be bent to conform to a tube. Try it cold and they crack and break. Try to heat them and they just melt.

Outstanding Perry. Can't wait to see them in person.

WOW, what are you going to do for an encore? Those are great. I like the one on the left a bit better. But only a small bit.

Did you use brass tape? The reason I ask is that I just bought some copper tape & wondered if I should get any brass tape too.

Sweeeeet!

Thanks Bob. I used copper tape I haven`t run across any brassbut it might be worth a shot.

I absolutely love that.

 

[papaturner]

Thanks folks for looking and the kind words but as you can tell from my post those guys had a hand in the results.

 

[cestmoi]

Those are fantastic! You picked the perfect kit to complement your design.

 

[thewishman]

Looks good! The first one is especially nice.

 

[Marko50]

That's a Top Shelf pen!

 

[johncrane]

You nailed it Perry, great looking pens mate, kit choice also spot on.

 

[Odysseos]

Great job. The blank and the kit make a perfect pair.:good:

 

[Ronnie Breedlove]

From design to finish it is an epic creation... well done

Absolutely Outstanding Pens, Perry.
Love the Selection of Materials, the Design and Exercution.
It is great to see you acknowledge, those who helped (or hindered) you, in the process.
Great Craftsmen All.
