snow .. and he says its a spring day ! lol, im glad im not where you are, although its cold and grey after the lovely weather we have had here the last few days!
anyway, i digress.. this is fabulous, the fractal in the stone reminds me of lightening. the stones are gorgeous, and i want to wear this!

As I said over at DA, excellent! I really like this one!

I rather like the moody colouring of the background and the fractal does suggest lightning which seems to suit that atmosphere. I don't personally like this anywhere near as much as some of your other works, but others clearly do and will - it would be pretty boring if we all liked the same things all of the time!

I wonder what difference it would make if the goldwork was silver instead. I always think blue/green and silver work beautifully together, but I have a personal bias in favour of silver generally. (I prefer silver to gold jewellery, for example.)

Good work, of course.

I really like how you used the same fractal on the background as you did in the jewel. And the scrollwork, as usual, is awesome. I downloaded your tutorial on the scrollwork and can't wait to try it next week on vacation.

Great job on the lighting and colours Nathan. It's a goodie. :)

don't tell me you still have snow on a spring day.....I just love the colors of this amulet, such a pretty jewel:)

Luv the lighting and repitition within the work Nathan!!

Really cool looking image there. Our spring day was more in the 80's. Nice day for the air conditioner.

Love the background, fabulous amulet too. The lightning-ish effects look fabulous.

Thanks! I appreciate you comments.
