Though not intentionally Myst inspired, I did play Myst IV for a bit before I started beading so...who know? I think it still counts! :)
I tried a couple different photography angles to try to get the neat toggle, the texture of the ring, and the colors right. I might make a couple more and put them on my Etsy.Ingredients:
From Ornamentea.com
Hammered Copper Ring
Antique Copper Jump Rings
From FireMountainGems.com
2" Copper Headpins (so bendy! so shiny!)
Round Antique Copper Toggle
African "turquoise" 15mm lentil (out of stock?)
I never played Myst, but I love the colors!! Is it heavy?? I may have to purchase one if you do sell them :D
ReplyDeleteAlso how did you take those pictures?
Its pretty light weight actually. The copper ring is feather-light, surprisingly. Its the stones that weigh it down a bit. Which is good, cause it mostly stays right side up!
ReplyDeleteI took the pictures in a light-box my work keeps for product photography. Then, I used Photoshop "levels" to adjust the white balance (though not very carefully :P )
Nice - well if you do make more, let me know!
ReplyDeleteThe pictures look great! I wish I had a lightbox. I'm sure Dave would loooove to have one for his models too.
Haha, will do.
ReplyDeletePS if you're interested in building a box on the cheap, there are tons of tutorials out there! This one looks almost exactly like what i used. Mine is made out of corrugated plastic instead of cardboard...
