Step 2 of the Spn stained glass window and a question ...

[tripperfunster]

Most of the glass is cut and I even PAINTED SOME OF IT!! Man, it was really hard to work with! You basically have to paint everything all in one layer, because it looks all streaky and weird if you go back over it again.

Here's the un-fired glass pieces:


Those little yellow banana looking things are going to be Cas' halo. It extends past his little skinny frame, so it ended up being like 8 pieces. These painted pieces will now get fired in a kiln, and the paint powder will fuse with the glass. Next step will be to paint them again, with a water wash to make the shading. This coat was just the bold, black lines.

Now the question … at the bottom of the panel, there is going to be three 2 inch circles, plus two half circles. The pattern is here if you'd like to see. The bottom's not well drawn in yet, because I didn't have the little bevel things, so I didn't draw then in completely. Anyhoo, I was thinking of painting on the bevels too, but I"m not quite sure what to put.

My thoughts are: The anti-posession tattoo that the boys have,
The angel banishment sigil,
The demon killing knife,
A raven
The impala (hard!!!)
Dean's necklace

Any thoughts? Suggestions?

As a funny little aside: The place where I buy my glass, and where I took this stuff to get fired is owned by a very religious couple. I was DREADING having them freak out because I'd painted a pentacle on the large circle. Lucky for me, they took one look at all the pieces and said "Hey! Looks great!" *phew*

This is SO cool. I love your design. I vote for the 'The angel banishing sigil' as it would go well with the theme of a church windows. Do put pics up as you go through the stages.

Thank you. Yes, I'll post more WIP photos, if you like.

I need at least 3 symbols, possibly 5. Angel banishing will be one.
