SUCCESS!

Well, after many long nights in the studio and lots of mountain dew, I finished my container pendant/locket! I am very pleased with the final design and overall look, but I still notice some of the little imperfections that bug the crap out of me. I have gotten a lot of really great comments on this piece from family, friends, and classmates that really makes all of the struggles worth it. I know there are some things that I would have done differently and some design elements that I wish I thought about a little more, but I'd say I'm very happy with it.

The next step for this project is crowd-sourcing and gaining information on what other people think about the design and concept. Any feedback or additional ideas would be greatly appreciated, whether positive or negative. The project information, as well as my design review and initial stages of the process are documented in earlier postings on this blog for more information.

Because I will be replicating this design to work in 3-D modeling and Injection molding, criticisms or ideas on how to change the design to fit better with these two processes are welcome.

Here are some final pictures:
