Knifegloves.com - Resurrection Fingertip Experiment

[🪦 mpetrie ●]

Hey everyone... thought I'd actually try to replicate the soldering patterns on the fingertips and try doing the dirty look again. This is the index fingertip. I know the coloring isn't spot on but what do you think?

It would be cool to see a little more red tint to the copper but that looks really good regardless <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" />

I was mostly just going for the solder line for now. Need to figure out how to do the red tint next. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" /> I'll see what I can do.

It did involve heat but it also involved some artistic methods that just popped into my head tonight. Been working on this fingertip for 2 hours. I'm pooped. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" />

Ahhh well practice i hate to say it but your gonna need a Map/oxy setup to get the real color

Otherwise, the coloring comes out too random. But we'll see.

[🪦 Fredsmidfinger ●]

True the color will be random that's just how things are but the heat that Mapp gas produces is the only way to really get the genuine aritcle. Copper has a mind of its own when it comes to color lol. Nice job

A little more fiddling:
