Dracula Family Crest

[pyxl]

I looked high and low and was unable to find a decent copy of the crest- so eventually I had to illustrate and vector it myself based on the ring. The ring has lots of details that have either been worn down, or were a little rough based on the original sculpt- so I opted to make the crest as I thought it might look were it new, while trying to keep somewhat faithful to the ring design.


This is my carving in some HDU. I've glued it to some 3/4 backer to give it some more depth and because 1 1/2 " HDU is expensive!! I like to carve in 3/4 when I can and then glue to a thicker backing board to save on expense.

Now it'll get some final touchup hand carving (like the scooped wings above and below the shield) and then some paint!

Nice work.

What's this for, just a wall decoration?

That's very nice and clean work. :thumbsup

That's pretty neat!

I cut it out, added some hand carved details and have it primed. Next is some paint....
This one is about 15" tall.

Very Cool!

Before you paint it… MOLD IT!!!! :cool

I’m sure that Dracula fans like myself would love to have a casting of this!

Maybe try starting an Interest thread in the Junkyard Section… that is, if you are even interested in selling castings.

Point taken... I've posted in the junkyard.

Looks great! Don't screw up the paint-job!! That could make or break it!
