Another picture of the tomoe pendent that i made. This is the one that i made for myself. I started making this for my girlfriend, but liked it so much that i made two!

I might, in the near future, fill in the oxidized area with solid black enamel. I am still debating that one.

Awwww your pendant looks so lonely without mine next to it.

Thank you again baby!!!

Now I can't wait for my birthday present after seeing how well these turned out, and now that you've gotten the rough first try out of the way, you can start becoming even more awesome in your abilities(I keep wondering if that's possible, yet you keep seeming to surprise me)!!!

*kisses* for my baby!! miss you. <3

Thanks for the praise. I have loved the design for a long while now.
Not too bad for my first and second attempt at peircing. Especially when the thin blades of the coping saw don't want to behave. LoL

I think it looks wonderful with the oxidation. I would rather see it remain this way than to add enamel . . . it has a very antique, yet Celtic feel to it.

Awesome. Thanks for your opinion. I am really on the fence about it. Partly because i have never enameled anything before.

I too like the oxidized look. But it is really hard to get an even patina.
More praise like this, and i will probably leave it like it is :)

Thanks!

You could always take a scrap piece of metal, even some copper, bevel it a bit and try the enamel to see if you like it? I really do like this piece though ;)

ooo, nice Dono. I wish your Terese would teach me how to make that kind of stuff; I'm soooo interested in it.
Happy New Year!

Sharp outfit, Chan. Careful, you could puncture the hull of an Empire Class Fire Nation Battle Ship, leaving thousands to drown at sea...because it's so sharp.

Well it helps when you already have all the tools at your disposal. The only part i really needed help with was the soildering, because i didn't want to screw it up :p
