Description
I was challenged awhile back by[link]
to do my take on the emblem from the Assassin's Creed series. After several weeks of dragging my feet and "doing stuff" I got off my butt and made it happen. Had to slightly augment/thicken the shape of the emblem to make it stronger(shattering in half is a bad thing) Couldn't pull off the floaty upside down wingy thing, cause well....I can carve stuff good....but I can't undo gravity.....
Carved from cow bone.

I started with a jewelers hand saw and then moved to a micro scroll saw, and now I basically just blast the bejesus out of the bone with a dremel bit and sand out the negative shape....I got lazy and hate replacing the saw blades when they snap...ha ha ha....
oh I shalt have to check those out, i have a random hodge podge of around 80 burrs that I rotate through

Wow, cow bone?
I wish I knew how to carve into bone. How difficult is it?
I'm only able to work with metal at this point in time.

Hey right on, what kind of metal working do you do? Carving in bone is interesting, its like half way between wood and stone. Its hard enough that you can cut sharp details into it, but soft enough that it is still workable. As with anything, it just takes practice practice practice!

I'm only a beginner, so I'm sticking to riveting and such, but what I do, I'm good at it. I can also etch, but I'm still a bit new with that. >__>
I love working in brass, even if it's a bit noisy to saw through. X3
..though sometime when I have spare time in class, I want to make myself a Templar cross pendant out of transparent red Plexiglas. Plexi's so easy to work with, and I adore polishing it. ♥
Goodness, I'm rambling. Sorry.

Ramble away! Its cool hearing about what your working on! Hey if you like Plexi then your part of the way to working with bone. You cant melt and bend it, but it carves similarly to enamel..

Sweet! :D
Plexi's similar to bone? I wouldn't have guessed! Maybe I'll bring some bone into the studio to experiment with sometime.
..now I just need to acquire some bone. >__>

i took a look at your shop, and i was surprised to see that this wasn't up on here. Is there a way that i could get one of these done? i'm willing to pay for it.

Hi DF,
Yeah this one was specifically commissioned for an individual so it didnt get put up for sale. Would you want something similar or are there changes you would want to suggest? I could do another for 45 plus 5 shipping

I don't have any changes, the original design is awesome,and that would be fine. one question though, do you put the leather strap on there, or will i need to put that on myself? my email is irish_dude87@att.net so we don't have to put any other info up on here. just let me know how and when to send it. thanks much, it's greatly appreciated.
