Description
This was a gift I made for last summer. Unfortunately I didn't get it finished in time for her to wear to the Bochum concert.
But I think she still liked it anyway. 
The chain has big open links, and then I did red, black and clear crystal beaded drops on either side of the bottlecap pendant. Also, too, I was dumb and forgot to take a photo of it before I sent it to her, so she was gracious enough to take one for me.
Before anyone asks: No, I am not selling these and not taking requests for any. At least, not now. I have a lot of other stuff going on both art-wise and personal/professional wise at the moment. Although I have toyed with the idea of having either an eBay or etsy Jrock jewelry setup someday.
**Please note** I don't own any part of Gackt, his music, or his image...I just happen to be a fan whose own creativity is inspired by him as an artist. Thank you!
**Also enjoy my work, but if you take it and post it anywhere else I only ask you credit it to me. Please, too, don't alter it in any way. Thanks again!**

Well, I bought the chain already. But I made the crystal drops myself with headpins and wire pliers. The bottlecap pendants actually come in a kit, I got 'em from eBay. I've made jewelry before with clear resin, but it's a huge pain and if you don't mix the right proportions, it won't set properly. So this was just the bottlecap and then I printed and punched out the Gackt picture and glued it in there, then the kit comes with these clear self sticking domes you just stick over the top.

Wow. That's incredible. I've never made anything that complicated. (It might not sound complicated to you, but it is to me)

Ahh~ that's so cool! If he ever get over here in the US, you could totally make a bunch and then sell them to fans or something.

Apparently Gackt is going to do another YFC tour this year(In Europe for sure, hope he does US tour too~) so I'm sure she could wear it if she goes to another show of his!
Good job on it, I like the colors used

Thanks!
Oh, I know, I got kinda jealous when I saw he's going back to Europe. I wonder if he doesn't like the US or something.

I got a little jealous too. I don't think it's that he doesn't like it, from what I've gathered he wants to come and do a North American tour , but I think it's harder to schedule shows in the US then in other countries.

and I will wear it for the YFC if I can manage to get tickets for Berlin and Leipzig
ah he said he wants to tour the USA too but I think it takes time to get the management to agree and to manage all things that need to be done, like finding places and cities for the concerts, a company who well sell the tickets and is known at the USA and etc
I think its just Europe at first cause he was here last year too..
But I think he will come to the US next year dears
