Mandalorian Beskar Steel Ingot (METAL)

[hyperdyne]

Latest project, real ingot engraved out of aluminum. Let me know what you think.

Very easy to engrave other foundry marks also, or even thinking of putting mando ID on back. Looks and feels like real Damascus! Check out the pics, sides are also engraved with continuous pattern all around.

Impressive!

If there is anyway to not have the pattern run through the imperial stamp and make the indents on the back a little deeper, you would have a 100% win. It’s still a 95% win right now, don’t get me wrong! LOL.

 

[hyperdyne]

Yeah, easy to change both of those things NakedMoleRat. The lines running through the cog is really a more realistic interpretation, as that is what would happen with any foundry mark. At any rate, thanks for the feedback.

 

[ScoobiJohn]

those look fantastic!! how did you do the engraving? cnc or by hand?

 

[JetSetWilly]

Nice. I like the sharpness of the stamp.

 

[Scote]

Ohh that's cool. I would recommend changing the logo. I did the same error the classic empire logo is not the proper one to put

 

[hyperdyne]

Thanks. By logo you mean the one with the cut in the cog? I suppose it depends on whether you want screen accurate or implied accurate. Either way, that is easily changed also!

 

[NakedMoleRat]

Screen accurate please.

I keep coming back to this thread and looking at that pretty piece of metal!

 

[NakedMoleRat]

It is a different logo than the one on your sample.

 

[Shonuff]

what method did you use for engraving?

 

[ShaunP Props]

wow

 

[hyperdyne]

Ok, we can do a screen accurate foundry mark also! Stay tuned. I'll get a pic up soon enough.

Looks good so far, but if you're going for screen accuracy, to me it doesn't look like the Damascus pattern is engraved on the prop.

Just a friendly reminder that this is not an interest or sales thread as those belong in the Classifieds Forums (and only Premium Members can sell/advertise). So let's please stick to discussing the aspects of the prop. Thanks.

Beautiful work. Have you had a chance to make any tweaks? Looking forward to seeing the next version.

 

[hyperdyne]

Yes! Here are pics of the more screen accurate version just finished.

This is going in for polishing. Doing one with a custom foundry mark as well for a buddy...

Where is the “huge smile” emoji button?

 

[hyperdyne]

Here is a custom foundry mark version. Back is engraved with "This is the way".

That's great work!
