Meddler's Hammer & Chisel mold UPDATE w Pron

[Meddler]

My custom rubber stamp arrived today and so just had to experiment.
Thanks to CT C32077 for the "Chisel and Hammer" art files.

Well, lots of bugs to work out. I didn't anticipate needing to stamp both sides of the chip simultaneously ...duh...

The trick is applying consistent pressure to get a perfect impression to the varying clay colors. Something I have yet to accomplish after a few trials as I keep going too deep with the stamp, but I'll get there eventually.

After a couple days of experimentation, stamping is just too tedious and good consistent results are difficult to get.

Anyways, thought I'd post a few chips up with the Fraser Castle artwork.

Update: ordered new stamp that is made of harder polymer and also not as deep. We'll see what happens.

Oh, somebody asked me how these chips felt. The best comparison I could think of is the Marlboro chips. Kinda rubbery.

Good job Meddler. The blue looks pretty good. (And yes, I realize it isn't flat.)
