Hi every body,
I show you my last work , some little pendants I have cut for my friends' wives. Their name is engraved in chinese and in european on the backside . The theme is Koï carps rising around lotus flowers .
The pendants are 2X3 cm and the titanium was cut with a pneumatic graver and a 110° point . The color palette obtained by anodization of Ti is quite narrow, for this work I would have like better reds and greens...:eek:

quit an interesting, beautiful color technique. the engraving and the color just seem to go very well together.

Is there masking involved in the anodization? Or is there such a thing as a pen or a brush that will carry the current ?

Thank you all for your kind comments :)
Chujybear I use no mask , just a little toothpick to carry the current, you have a tutorial in the Tips Archive.
