A Christmas Celtic Cross
I just finished a requested Christmas gift. After four attempts (different design ideas) I finally decided to do the wax carving in two parts and cast them together.
I'm all done and Santa needs a bourbon ball and a scotch. O'Neille

I had cast a couple extra, just in case. I lost one while sanding and couldn't find it. The other, I experimented with a hammered finish.

Those are very nice. I like the hammered look better, but both are great.

Be proud, both look great. I prefer the hammered look. ( Maybe that I have the hammered look down to a science after a few drams.)

the hammered is so rustic looking! NICE
Inside me is a thin woman screaming to get out. But I can usually shut the b*tch up with chocolate!
