Couple more Sierra's
Here are two more Sierra's that I made today. One is a Pine cone cast in two shades of strawberry on an Black Titanium and Gold Sierra and the other is a pumpkin and green self cast blank on a Black and Gold Sierra Stylus.
I hope you like them
Cheers Ian

What kind of pine cone did you use? I've often wanted to cast a few cones, but all from around here seem way too large! Guess I could always 'disassemble' them somewhat...but even then the cores would need a LOT of trimming. Need me some mini hemlock cones or something... Did you use pressure during the curing of the PR?
Both are really nice castings, but the cone is the winner for me!
