As an exercise to test some new techniques, I made a batch of Artist Trading Cards:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

There are three designs, each involving a zeppelin and either a tower, a building, or a hanger. The smaller pieces were “electrolyticly machined” following Von Slatt’s idea (two sided etching)…

I used brass, copper, and steel and each card has all three metals. The little pieces are riveted to the card with metal matched rivets…
I think I will list afew in my etsy store as ACEO cards and I will probably offer to trade afew here on the board…

Anyone want to trade for one of their cards?

The cards were made in "batches" so there are 3 "1st cards"... I would have to flip through them to pick them out because I did not number them in any particular order...
