Brass Powder

[Kcimdrib]

My first attempt at decorating a Pen with Brass Powder and Epoxy. The mix needs working on but I have some Copper powder so may give that ago.
I have used in the past for filling cracks in Bowls. Think it needs more consideration. If anyone has some suggestions I would welcome them. I used a Epoxy two part glue with a fast cure time.

That's really nice !!!

You have achieved good delineation of the decorative rings ! . Am wondering how you did that.

Did you first cut shallow grooves into which you placed the powder/glue mix ?

Thats correct not difficult but messy the epoxy sets quickly so you have to work fast and use plenty of powder I had two attempts turned it back and used more powder for the second attempt. Also sanded and burnished prior to Ca finish.
