Queen Xenomorph Brass Knuckle Ring Debuts

My Queen Xenomorph Transforming Brass Knuckle Ring has fully matured; ready to lay her eggs!  Gracious hosts consider being a surrogate and share the gift of life!  Despite the taboo of interspecies mingling, I'm pleased to say that new palm piece (Queen Head) melds well with the original ring base.  Though I'm still entertaining dramatic modifications to this ring base, it almost feels as if they were designed simultaneously.

The steel finish also came out strong with all the extra textures and highlights.  I rock this xeno variant a lot more than the drone version, so I've experienced more wear time.  I appreciate the look of the Queen's head from many more angles than the Drone's head and I really enjoy its look displayed off my finger.  It's sleek profile atop keeps her unobtrusive, however the beefiness in the base can make long term wear challenging especially for the slender finger. 
  

 Here are set of Queens so cannibalism is guaranteed.  There can be only one bad Egg-Laying Mama on the block or hand, but don't let that deter you from getting one for each hand. 

Keep an eye out for some embedded xeno skull versions, a Tronned out version, and of the Warrior Variant!

It's been a bit challenging to capture strong images of this ring.  I find her far more appealing in person than the drone.  It was fun extracting this Queen from the various artist renderings online.  Thanks to them for the reference materials and the challenge of merging their vision into this piece.  Eventually, I'll bundle all three variants, but for now this Queen is available for Order at Etsy here;

 Wax has been fantastic in executing these whimsical pieces.  So I'm excited about this mediums potential in future products. 

So my beetle (old pipe reference) has indeed turned into a herculean task, so I'm taking a break by revisiting earlier projects. I'm still not satisfied with the Trojan Turtle's design in terms of sturdiness, however it has provided exciting design tangents. A turtle dragon has been a fun experiment that may lead to a larger version. Ultimately these experiments are revealing the resin's potentials and limitations. However, I still feel as if I'm observing fragments of deliberate design amongst a hot mess, glimpses here and there, as if I'm clumsily combining components because they are shiny. It's still quite early, so I am just naive enough to believe these concerted efforts will reveal all of the "fill-in-the-gaps to keep it moving" - motivated design decisions.

Shine on your crazy diamonds.  Shine on.
