I made this deck box, designed to hold approximate 60-75 sleeved collectible cards such as Magic the gathering or Pokemon. The box itself has a nice clasp and is all hand tooled, dyed, and painted with LoZ themed artwork.
I have no idea where to begin... Uhm.. can I just say that I desperately, if I still played Magic: The Gathering, I would be using the "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY" meme unconditionally. There isn't much detail- which is really good for the overall design because it's simple and extremely eye pleasing. The balance between the colors is also very eye appealing. What I think pulls this piece really well together is the balance between the Twilight Princess symbol and the clasp. I'm not entirely sure why but the piece is really lovely. I seriously would buy this if you were selling it and if I had money. The longer I look at the pictures the more I pick out little thing's that makes me want to look at it and actually be able to hold it and see everything for myself. Overall very stunning and simply amazing work! Everything works so well together I just can't find anything for you to improve or work on... maybe next time try a piece with a "Surprise" color? or maybe a shape that doesn't belong to make the piece stand out? OR maybe instead of just one plain color for the over all color you mix two different shades or tones together to make a more interesting idea? (like with the gold I would have mixed a little bit of copper into it. )
I'm sorry if you didn't want any ideas- In short, your work is amazing, keep being awesome and keep doing what you do!
I have not posted it on etsy but I will sell it for $50. I also have been making several others recently. You should check them out on my facebook page. Www.facebook.com/deadlancesteamworks
