The start of the next project

I've started to look into my next project for class, which is a locket. This is a mourning locket that I've taken interest in. I like how the hair and the embroidered initials are enclosed as well as a place where a photo or small painted portrait would be. 

Texture in process

The texture that I want to use on my vessel is coming out the way I want it to. Though this is a scaled down version I'm sure it'll look just as good 1' wide. 

Started my sample

My first sample is coming out really nice, im looking forward to cutting out a larger piece of copper to work with.

Finished my sketch model and sketch

I'm going to create a copper flask with 3 honey bees and honeycomb texture 

Almost done with my tools
