I hope you made notes about the construction and where you had problems or could make it easier, because this is going to be another popular design. Very, very nice.

ArmouredRaven In reply to HasturCTS [2006-03-06 18:22:14 +0000 UTC]

I did actually. I almost always draw out my ideas before making them and I tweak the drawing on paper as I have to make changes in the physical design. Mainly because I want to get my drawing hand to keep up with how the rings shape themselves, but it also serves well to have a pattern of my pieces as well.
Thanks so much!

Once again you did a beautiful job of putting it on display and clear for detail. I've never fiddled with such a design or netting as one of the other comments pointed out. But I can be apreciative of how difficult it was. Its a great peice.

ArmouredRaven In reply to Koolaidmaid [2006-03-06 18:15:25 +0000 UTC]

Thank so much, I have an average camera and no real photo setup so I end up spending as much time cleaning up the pic in photoshop as I did making the piece.

*chuckles* understandable. My digital cam is a cheap thing. I would like to get a really nice one someday. But till then. Its touch up central for a while on my end. LOL

netting patters, that lay the way you wnat them are notoriously difficult to pull off.
this one is wonderful, and it looks, like it fits like a glove

LOVELY! I love the gold coins and the class. it isn't easy to have that much shiny and have it still be stylish.

ArmouredRaven In reply to DesireeMorte [2006-03-05 03:36:41 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I used to avoid gold but I'm taking a liking to it now that I've been into bellydance costuming.

DesireeMorte In reply to ArmouredRaven [2006-03-05 03:38:18 +0000 UTC]

I'd love to get into the bellydancing thing... but there aren't any troupes in my area. I had an opportunity a couple years ago but it wouldn't fit my work schedule, I regret that quite frequently. Maybe someday though. I enjoy bellydancing as a workout though.

Gorgeous! Love the diamond-shaped connectors and the elegant lace pattern with the coins as a beautiful counterbalance.

ArmouredRaven In reply to Ellygator [2006-03-05 03:34:30 +0000 UTC]

Those connecters were being very stubborn when I was designing it, the patterns I wanted to use would just not lay right, so I ended up with this. I'm glad to hear others like it at least. Thanks!
