Painted crest blocks

Salve

Quote:Can you give me some more information on those embossing tools you have... Tried a search on ebay to no avail.
Product name/ maker, place you got them etc...

Nope, I have to keep it a top secret! :twisted:

Just kidding... it's made by K&S

What I'm using is K&S .005 36 gauge brass, part number 6010.

I picked mine up at Maximum Velocity, Inc.
Phone: United States 623-587-9261

The embossing tools (small pens with a ball at the end) I picked up at my local art supply store. I purchased three different sizes, six balls in total like this one:

Quote:Nice work. Would really like to see more pics once you get farther along. It looks great. Brass is a fun metal to work with

I've been taking many photos as my Attic Helmet project has progressed... I'll be done and post the 'how to' photos in about 2 weeks (if I stay on track!)

You can see more embossing on my sword thread here:

Jef... do please post photos of your crest when you're done!
Vale!
