Discord, in repousse By Kantorai Watch

79 Favourites 28 Comments 2K Views

A repousse study of my interpretation of Discord from MLP FiM. Made from 1mm copper plate, worked both sides on chasers pitch, heat patinated and polished with steel wool. My intention was to project a more malignant side of Discord, sort of like an hieroglyph from an old temple portraying prophesies of an ancient evil.



I suck at photography, so unfortunately this is the best picture I have of it so far. I'll try to set one up with better light conditions, propably. I'm also torn between just letting it be as it is or experimenting with a different patina/finish. Any comments/advice in that matter will be greatly appreciated, as the subject has been largely ignored in my schooling..



I had fun making it, but I'm not sure if I'll be making any more fan stuff. Not to say that fan art is somehow not time worthy, but towards the end it started to gall me that I was using another persons character.



Discord is copyright of Lauren Faust (I believe)



UPDATE: Thanks to Equestria Daily for featuring this in their craft compilation. You guys rock!
