Assassin's Creed logo necklace by MidnightDragonC

Assassin's Creed logo necklace

MidnightDragonC

A necklace I made to go with my Assassin's Creed 3 themed casual cosplay jacket. :D

I used 4 different colored hemp cord for the necklace. There are 3 separate small braids and then those 3 braided into one final braid. What is being used to hold it together is a button on one end and a looplike button hole on the other side. (as shown in the bottom left photo)

The logo is carved from the plaid unpainted wood apple shape (shown here: http://i5.walmartimages.com/dfw/dce07b8c-9612/k2-_bae09f11-6a88-4145-9d7c-5c3c9fb412f4.v1.jpg)
I hand carved it out the apple shape (only about less than half of the left side of the apple I used to carve it out.) The logo was tricky trying to draw it, but lined paper is a good thing to use for making the sides of it match up. Then after finally getting it to look like the logo I traced my drawing on the wood before carving. (to make sure I had the right shape). After carving it out of the apple I started to carve in the logo into the wood with an X-acto knife. (not a wise thing luckily I have a backup blade). The blade has chips in it now so don't use one I also used a small wood saw replacement blade for more of the hard center and for carving into the wood more. :)
When I got done I sanded the wood down. I painted it using Painters brand paint markers and then some Simply... brand red acrylic paint for the center. :) Used a sponge brush for the other colors to make it look rustic metal feel.
To seal the paint I used Plaid brand Mod Podge gloss that is a waterbase sealer, glue and finish. When the weather warms up like in late spring early summer I will seal it with Plaid Patricia Nimocks spray sealer. :D

The wooden logo is 1.75" x 1.25" x 0.25" (LxWxH)

Holding the logo to the main necklace is a small piece of the black colored hemp cord.

Enjoy! :D

Oh, and yes I know there is a few mistakes from carving that happened so please don't remind me that I made them I know I did.
