Using Tig as Decorative Process

[paulrbrown]

Walker, I have not applied this finish to any art per se as of yet, I have some other small pieces out of lowcarbon, but they have a ferric oxide coating [RUST] send your email address to me via my address here and I will try to send some shots. Thanks for the comments....Paul

Thought I would let you see some of my Decorative uses of Tig. I do join materials also, but this is for my artwork. These took about 30 seconds per line of dots, and are not enhanced anyway, they actually look better in real life, colors are very irridescent, up close at 4x magnification they look really wild, will post another pic with closeup....Thanks for looking, Paul

Just thought I would bring up some old stuff from 04 to see if it worked, hope you like....PRB

thanks Helios, hope yo noticed I used Helium with the Argon....you being Helios, and as it is 304 stainless, the color stays on as long as you do not put acid on it.....Dynasty 200 DX when I first got it in 04

Great work Paul, are you using the pulsar and then moving the torch along?

I would also be interested in seeing any completed works using this process that you have done, do you have a website?

Ha! I wondered how you got the "scales" spaced so evenly!
