Except for current or former police officers. They can buy what they like and even sell to people no questions asked.

Have you considered inventing a time machine, going back in time, becoming a general contractor, and then building your house but smaller? Smh, people won't go the slightest bit out of their way to make things better these days.

Once it's a solid piece I can cut it with a tile saw. That kind of saw can't really cut you, so I just do it by hand. Once it's in the right shape I grind it down through various grits and then polish it with cerium oxide.

Glad you like them!

That one used a piece of petrified wood and blue dichroic glass. That's what gives it the color. I wish I could post videos on here, pictures don't capture the effect very well.

Thanks! They are made of stone and laminated glass.

To make them I cut the rock and make a flat face, then laminate multiple sheets of regular glass and one of dichroic glass with UV resin, and glue it to the stone. Once everything is set nicely I shape it on a tile saw, then grind and polish the faces with a flat lap machine and a massive wet belt sander.

 

Glass and stone sculpture/paperweights/shiny baubles I like to make. I ran across an artist making them on YouTube, looked at what he charged for them, and then decided to learn to make them myself. Hope you enjoy!

Where did he just come back from? Wrong answers only.

 
 
 
 
 

What do you guys think?

 

Working on an Alpha legion loyalist (ish) army. Still have a long way to go, but I'm happy with how it's going.

 

I'm still pretty new to painting minis, but this has been a fun and pretty simple color scheme that looks (imo) pretty good too!
