Oh the first layer was a piece of cloth, I pressed it in to the clay get the base texture if you look along the edges you will see a bit of a crossnit.

Then I indented the long vertical and horizontal lines with a dull razor blade.

The center is a reversed jewlery finding, I pressed in. Sometimes you have to look at things in a relief way when working with clay..not so much a indent as what kind of raised marking it will make.

Added details like the binding lines and the rivets..

A little dark acrylic paint wash into the receses after it was baked,Then my gold marker pen lightly about the surface to create highlights.

As I said, a little playing around with on hand items and you will find some interesting everyday items as tools

Your turn ~J

Thanks this was just one of the books for the Treetop but the effect turned out pretty nice, a lot of learning during the build .
