Bond Coat of Arms

Now that the Christmas holidays are upon us, and I have a bit more time on my hands, I'm setting to a project I have long wanted to get around to.

A solid Bond family coat of arms, as pictured in OHMSS.

I'm working on the scroll work and shield, all in 3D relief.

I plan to mount it on a metal shield, small enough to hang on the wall.

We'll see...

A Merry Christmas to all !

    Thanks for your words of encouragement.

    Must remember to take a break Christmas and Boxing day (sharp tools and alcohol don't mix, I've learnt).

    Marvelous! Far Up! Far Out!
    Can you make one for me?
    I really would love to purchase one from you and hang on me wall. Years ago someone was selling them on Ebay, but they weren't as lovely as yours.
    A Blofeld one would be very cool as well.
    Cheers,
    Tom

    Little progress update.
    Started to work on the detail. Had a mishap when baked to harden! Have to re-tool the detail.
    Onwards and upwards.

    It looks great!!
    Prototype? This means there will be more?
  • Akbar SharAkbar Shar LondonPosts: 58MI6 Agent
    Yes, indeed.

    I have already been asked if I could make more, and so made this in a way that I can produce others, if people are interested?
