That Looks cool Molly.
The pendant looks like a painters palette, was that intentional?

Thanks Wallace.
Sort of, I was just playing with the paths tool to get something weird and then I went from there. I filled it with black and did a bevel then a gold gradient, Then in the centre I filled it with a color then used the Noise and then from there, I don't know what I did.

Whatever it was you did it came out really nice. I tried making a piece, but I'm not much good at jewellery design.
Here's what I came up with.

I made these chain links...

Then created this chain and added the star pendant...

They look pretty good to me. How did you get them interlock like that, did you have to use an eraser?

The reason I do the bevel is to give it a twisted look like a real chain. I use my circle brush and make the spacing to make a chain and use black, I then use the bevel script on it and then them gradient,

I used a layer mask to have them look interlocked.

I made these other chain links using the tutorial by Draconian in the link below as a guide.
I also used a layer mask on these as well to make them look interlocked.

As I often say, I'm virtually rich but actually not. lol

One day, though, someone's going to come up with a way to turn images into matter. Then I will actually be rich. :)
