More Pewter!

So I'm not ACTUALLY looking to specialize in this stuff, but I can knock out a wax master quickly, mold making is an interesting exercise in geometry and materials science, and being the master of molten metal is just FUN.

Since my last post, I revisited my hnefatafl pieces in travel-sized pewter, did site tokens for our Yule event, a step-up baronial token for some friends, and a principality award.  ...  Oops, my last pewter post was further back than I thought. I've ALSO done a populace badge for a neighbor kingdom and MoD medallion in soapstone, and I'm currently working on a token for the new Princess, plus a few designs for pin heads.  Future projects I have in my head but haven't started yet include-but-are-not-limited-to two more populace badges, a consort token, more jewelery and a few different awards.

But for real, though. I'm not a pewterer.
