>>>A dear friend of mine is going to cast pewter tulips for me. Since the
gown that I made is amethyst, silver/pewter will look very spiff. I'm
also planning to color the tulips - a friend of mine makes SCA award
medallions and paints them. They still look metallic, but the color is
nice and even.<<<
That will look gorgeous! Amethyst and silver - YUM!
I have friends that are great with brass and pewter, and I must admit I've been
thinking of showing this to them and asking if they could make me some in
either brass or vermeil, simply because I prefer gold and love it with black
like in the portrait. I wonder if painting pewter with gold paint would work.
>>>PS: Thanks so much for the posting of the large image. I do appreciate
>>>it!<<<<
Oh, you're very welcome, and I'm glad it's been of help, but it was Salvi's
scan to begin with, she deserves the thanks. :-)
