Small Copper Rose

[GTmike400]

This weekend I've been working on forming a small rose out of copper for a special somebody. This is my first time working with copper. I made one out of steel before, but copper is just much prettier looking than the cold gray of steel.

The stem is about 3" long, the rose bud is maybe 1-1/2". Pretty small one.





Im trying to decide whether or not to airbrush some translucent red over it, kind of streaky not solid red.
