Ogre necklace, handmade! Pics!

original thread ↗

I am normally not a guy who wears jewelry/necklaces... But I decided to try my hand at making this Maw pendant.

Whenever people ask what it means, I reply "It represents never-ending hunger and insatiability."

It's made of filed aluminum (the circle and individual teeth) held together with zinc brads, reinforced with super glue and epoxy. It won't rust, doesn't stain skin, and has not broken. I have been wearing it for months. What do you guys think?
Sometimes you just have to say, to hell with complicated plots, deception, and trickery.
And just smash the hell out of something.
Looks like you did an exceptional job.  Looks well thought out and constructed!
It looks like you will sell it to me... ;)
My hood is my castle...
Does it ever bite you?

Aha the teeth aren't THAT sharp. I filed them to points, yes. Sometimes it gets caught on threads if I have it on before I put on a shirt.

I've thought about making them and selling them, but it was an incredible amount of work to get it right.

That is incredible..
I made myself a Triforce pendant, but that's not so difficult :D
I miss the Tenderiser...
you could make a silicone mold and cold cast these in resin with metal powders...

Multiple copies, metal looking and lightweight...

Just sayin' ;)
Open your eyes or the pain will flood in, thought for today is not to give in.

Not a bad plan... Not a bad plan at all. How many of you would be interested in one of these, out of curiosity?

I would. I think it looks great.
I would be interested in one....so long as it doesnt have nickle in the metal (as i am one of those big sissies that is allergic to nickel) but yeh, if you are making them i would buy one.  :D

I assure you, ser, there is no nickel. Aluminum and zinc.

I'd buy one but don't get in trouble for stealing from GW and then selling it... :P

Actually i think it is the purchasers of the product that would be in trouble (strangely) rather than it's creator. I could well be wrong, but i think it may work in the same way as having a GW character related tattoo. The person who draws the tattoo could be described as doing it for personal use, however if they tattoo it onto another person then they may be liable because they have purchased the image...which would make it illegal. Apparently, this could get you banned from games workshop. It is a theory i would like to test out as it happens.
With this therory in mind, i intend to have an image of Ghazghul thraka tattooed on my hand and i am intrigued to see if having this will get me banned from GW stores/ shops.

As for the necklaces...a big teethy circle, whilst looking like a OK image, is not exactly like the original image. Also, people would probibly not be buying these necklaces, they could be buying raffle tickets and winning them.

For clarity's sake here is GW's disclaimer;

To re-phrase my original statement; " i would be happy to buy a raffle ticket, hoping to win one of these necklaces" if that helps.  :D
Lol thats hillarious.

Yes I too would like to purchase one raffle ticket that may or may not include an ogre necklace prize (but it better have 99.9% odds or you won't be getting my money!). :)

^ The odds of a win are dramatically increased if there are as many prizes as entrants  ;)

I am also interested in such things.

NIce!
I have a tribe of flesh color ogres before I did the frost-colored theme. I'm thinking some cheap jewelry chains to make the chains where by this conquered tribe could be tugged about by the dominant tribe.

Any ideas?
Great work indeed.

Eternally hungry?  That's certainly me!
"Nec sorte nec fato"
I'd be interested :)

After all, painting 100 night goblins is something you do in the morning just before you are off to work.

And I think you missed a 0 when you wrote 11 armies. The correct nr should be 110 armies I would think, based on your painting speed.
^ did anything ever come of this "everyone is a winner" OK "like" neclace raffel? Did the guy who made these ever actually make any to "raffel"?
