Finishes

Most of my pieces are painted in natural colors usually incorporating the wedding scheme. Perfectly legitimate choice and it's very cool to have tiny you's on top a cake. I would however like to suggest that sometimes a more simpler finishes will have an interesting effect. This is "Monkey Man Odin".

He's done with with an undercoat of black paint and then rubbed with a silver finish using fingers and Q-tips. I think this finish would look very striking on top of a cake. Other metallic finishes are of course available. Gold is a classic but copper has an organic quality especially with some patina to it. Bet you've never seen a Norse chimp before.
