Project- A Borka for Sebastijan... (Hand engraving titanium)

[WValtakis]

Sneaking in a personal project for Sebastijan Berenji, he was looking for something that hearkened back to his Slavic heritage. Did some digging and came across this pattern, gonna start sketching tonight...should be SWEET

I was torn between being 100% faithful vs changing it up a bit, but I think this looks pretty damn sweet

Bottom, it'll look way better with the shading and dimension.

That model is awesome, they need to make a production version for us mere mortals to afford!

Can't wait to see the finished product.

Spent the last few hours getting hammered, and now I've got a headache Gave the borders a hammered finish to contrast with the stonewashed slabs, now I'll go in and blast the centers...then some cleanup and shading

Thanks Chip for all the work in process pictures, although I know you have a lot of time in each piece, you make it look easy and fun just like sitting down with a good book.

Not to be a jerk, but I believe the correct term is “funky fresh”.

Got the centers blasted, nice and dark while still allowing for some shading
