Disappointed?! I would be ECSTATIC to get something like this!
You should try to make some to sell, I'm sure other fans would be more than happy to get their hands on something like this. But anyway great job, I really love the idea.

I think he started to like it after he put a candle in it not sure though
he's fond of fire
I was thinking that too, but shipping would be a problem (and pretty expensive) =/ and I've never been to keen on making something more than 1 or 2 times + I don't think a lot of people would buy it. The material is pretty expensive (at first it didn't seem so, but I've been doing some math here) => I'd have to charge too much to cover all the costs
Tx for the comment!

My thought exactly.
But then again I can almost decorate a whole room with my 'holy collection' so...

Dude, do I need to smack a bitch? This candle holder is wonderful! When my friend gave me a handmade Assassin's Creed trinket box, I nearly flipped my freaking lid.
If he doesn't like it, keep it for yourself or send it to me? Haha, just kidding, just kidding.
Don't think for one minute that you wasted time making this beautiful little piece.

Nah, I'll slap him myself
Thx
I'm just happy I kept the design plans in stead of throwing them away (like I usually do )

Aww.. I love working in metal. It bites that he didn't appreciate it as much as you had hoped.
I think you did a good job.
How long did this take with the engraving machine? I might want to try something similar to this sometime, but I would have to use a scribe or etch the metal in ferric chloride or something.
*metal nerd*

Alentrish In reply to Arithusa [2011-12-23 08:43:13 +0000 UTC]
The engraving took about 20-30 minutes (or more, not sure) because there's a lot of detail going on.
Hey, since I started working with metal, I'm loving it too

It did seem a bit silly and small when I gave it... I think he was just expecting something... bigger.
