Vampire Pendant

Another in the series of pendants I'm working on. This one is the vampire pendant.

I'd like to point out that this pendant is only about 1 1/2 inches long. I created this design and cut it from a sheet of copper. Due to a broken drill bit, I nearly went insane trying to drill holes so I could get the jeweler's saw-blade in to cut out the inner areas. A new drill bit solved all that, though.

The stones are carnelian cabochans and the copper was tarnished with liver of sulphur. The bright areas in the tarnished copper are from scraping away the tarnish and making slight lines in the metal.

I will say this again - soldering links is the bane of my existance. @_@
