geometric bull's head pendant

wire wrap tree

So when I was like 8 years old, my family went on a trip to Germany during Christmas and we went to these awesome markets and i saw these really cool wire wrap trees and my uncle bought one for me.
Then a couple of months ago I got a load of brass wire so naturally I tried to make on like the one I had, the one we bought looked way cooler cause it was set on a marble base and the crystals on the branches were amber. Mine was made using rocks I found in the field behind my house but still

substitute shinigami pass tutorial

So I really liked the bleach anime I wanted to make something from the anime, and by far the most iconic thing is the combat pass. Most of the tutorials I saw for this were using some fancy laser cutting super mega cnc mill (I believe that is the technical term) so i tried to make one using only a rotary tool which is probably more common

Honeycomb cuff

   

so I actually made this by accident originally the gold lines were going to be black but for some reason the exposed parts got electroplated instead of etched. So now it has the hexagons made from a mix of rust and copper.I didn't coat it because I hope the copper will turn to the blue green patina 

Overall it came out better this way I think
