Fine Silver Claymore Anime Pin

Description

There are a few anime that I would say are my favorites. Lucky Star, Nichijou, Berserk, Claymore, and a few others. The list could go on forever. Claymore is an anime that I watched, and realized I needed to also read the manga. While it was a little disappointing that the anime ended the way it did, the manga got me back on track.

I tried for awhile to find some inexpensive Claymore merchandise. Being an older anime it was a little more difficult than many of the new ones that have come out. I found a 3d sculptor artist named Michel Ballares, or  Creative Geek MB. It was an amazing sculpt of Clare standing in front of a statue showing an angelic version of Teresa and Clare back to back. I have added this model which I painted in the gallery. I contacted Michel and asked if we could make a deal. I needed him to make some slight changes to the model. wings a little thicker at the ends, a way to put a chain on it at the back etc. He agreed and in turn I would send him 15% of all proceeds from selling the limited run of them I had made. At the time, I had made 10 pendants for sale. I said I wouldn’t make any more.

A customer messaged me and asked if it would be possible to make her a replacement pendant. Hers had been lost. I considered for awhile about it and finally agreed. I had also made some smaller models and decided to try and cast them as well. Rather than using sterling silver which i prefer due to how much stronger it is, I cast these smaller ones in fine silver. They were small enough to hold up. I then soldered on pin backings and here we are. I now only have 2 of these for sale. These will be the last ones made. No replacements this time either. These are great for tie, lapel, or whatever you prefer.
