Spring and the smell of sulphur

Today I finished a pendant that was based on a cicada...

I also made a Mexican scull type pedant. Id like to find a good resist for etching but I kind of like the drawn on effect.

The oxidisation of the copper was done with egg fumes.

I assumed that because an off egg stinks more than an fresh one that it would have more sulphur thus speeding up the oxidation process.

I don't know if this is the case.

But its the first time I've smelt an off egg, and hopefully the last... it smells like death!

Here is the copper after a whole night in the fumes of the egg:

And here are a few images from my house:

Spring is here!

It works but after you turn it on it takes a few minutes to 'warm up'

Good night blog!
