Thank you for your kind words.
I read books and learnt metalsmithing (jewelry) by trial and error by making metal miniatures like weapons, tools, garden tools or whatever gives me inspiration. I combine all material I could find around: wood, nails, brass, silver and gems.
All my method is from jewelry so all tools I used are jeweler's tools: files, saw, torch, wax.

The anvil and the blacksmith vise are made by lost-wax casting, the drawknife i "forged" from a washer (you can see the process below)

Have a nice day and keep modelling !
