Help with Morrison Crest

[McElmurry]

This sounds like a fun exercise. It would be nice to see a photo-journal of it being made - step by step.

Step one is to make a pattern. I started with the crest badge from the banner on the Clan Morrison website, which is black and white, and I am in the process of adding color. The pattern doesn’t have to be perfect it just has to provide the general outline for the pieces but it does give a sense for how the final product will look. This is definitely stretching my nearly non-existent artistic abilities. Luckily, for this project, fine detail is not needed at this point. The hardest part so far has been the hand; a real hand can’t actually be positioned the way it is shown on the original. Here is the progress so far. I have mostly been working on the crest so the belt is still pretty fuzzy.
