I'm quite proud of these...
« on: January 03, 2011, 04:50:27 »
Heat treated items! :o
Yup, so I caved... but only for these two very special items. ;)

First, I have a fusion of a Roman sword, and a Medieval one...
Forming a "Viking Broadsword" or Roman Centurion longsword. :)
If I could perfect my fusion techniques,
I think I would like to punch out a few more of these.... ;D






Here I have my other heat treated item, my field cannon! 8)
At first glance it looks like your original old-timey cannon...



But upon closer inspection you'll find that it is actually
an old cannon barrel mounted on newer parts!
(Necessity is the mother of invention.)





It is an old cannon barrel that I have fit into a newer version cannon "holster"
I had to heat up the sides to fit it in, but it now is snug,
and I can still rotate it. :)
I put the cannon with holster on top of a barbarian arrow shield stand
And switched out the wheels of the stand for larger ones.

I hope you like them both. :)

Good work WoT. Although I am unsure if I condone of such practices....who am I kdding....it's great stuff.

Although I do have a harder time seeing bigger items being irriversible customized, the end result is usually worth it. This is definitely the case here!
