Gilded Roe Skulls - WIP
Give a girl a skull and she will gild
Give a girl a box of skulls and it will greatly impact on her social life...
Washing
Black and Gold
Base colour
Gilding in progress
Sockets remain black
A neon base, makes me wish I was colour blind.
Selective gilding
Sockets and forehead gilded, have added a further diamond in pink within the gilt diamond
Considering an ever-decreasing diamond-within-diamond pattern for the forehead, or a complimentary colour within this. As yet, undecided.
