Okay, here are two of my metal pieces that i made. I have made over 70 different models and designs. Here are 2. What i do, is get a piece of sheet metal, and get a very thin hand-saw with a blade that is thinner than the thickness of a fingernail (very delicate lol) And just start cutting. After that you file the rough edges and sand down the flat parts, and then polish. Thats it. My first one was based off of AFI's Sing The Sorrow album cover. This is a picture of what it is based off of. (not by me) And this is my metal piece (Before the polishing and engraving. The sharpie and pencil part is just markings of what I will engrave.) It says Sing The Sorrow under the leaves. It is still not complete, but i think it came out really good. This second one is based off of Link (WOLF) from The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Here is a picture of what it is based off of (not by me) (just the wolf part) And this is my re-creation of it, after polishing. Sorry for the reflectoin of the camera in the back, but the polisher makes it mirror-like. I will post more when i can get some pictures of them, They are in the gallery in my school. =]

Those are really nice looking, RK. ^^ I like the Wolf Link one. That one came out nicely. ^^ Are you gonna do any TLK related? If so, I can't wait to see them. ^^

Thanks TS ^^
I plan to do a TLK related one. But it will have to wait until the school year starts in September, because the school supplies me with all of the materials that i need for it

I might make the classic "Simba Drawing" that Rafiki draws onto his tree in TLK. I also might make a Kovu one, With just the shape of his head cut out, and all of the details engraved into it.
