@KaidoLP3 years ago 2 small possible improvents:
use clear acrylic and polish all the edges. For the places that the light is supposed to escape sand or laser etch for the metal etching try photo resist like it is used in screen printing. It allows for very tiny details and perfect geometry as you can simply print out a drawing onto transparent paper to use as an uv mask. ...Expand

@MotherOfWednesday3 years ago An acid etch would give your brass line work a deeper grove for the oxidation to sit in. It is similar to etching circuit boards or intaglio printing plates.

@pandamainiak28953 years ago You know what would be an awesome art collab? If martina sent out one of the elemental books to a fellow artist and have them do 2 or three pieces of artwork for example:
the fire book would contain creatures and characters of fire
one page would be a character and their back story
one page would be their pet/familiar or their nemesis
one page could be their home or their world
then the next artist can do theirs and so on!
this would give may artists a wonderful opportunity to get inspired and make new friendships along the way!. ...Expand 478

@firby73413 years ago This is honestly amazing. This was in mybc youtube algorythm i guess and it was really interesting.

ya know choose a monster from the game you defeated and create a fake head of the creature with all the fun materials and led lights your so awesome at.
you could even put your weapons around the head like what ya see at taverns. ...Expand
