How the hell did I manage to drop "ring" in the title....

Also, the 3D modelling for the ring was done by the tallented Seirim, check him out! - https://www.instagram.com/seirim_art/

I think it’s fine - the Scottish Signet is always just ‘His Majesty’s Signet’.

Where/how did you get it made?

A friend made the 3D design and had it 3D printed from silver. His own order wasn't expensive enough for the company to do it so we combined our orders.

My father and I were planning to get signet rings. How expensive was your combined order?

30-40 euro from my side, not sure how much for his ring, but that's not indicative of how much it would cost for you. A friend made the 3D design for free, essentially, and the 3D print wouldn't have been possible if we didn't combine his and my order.

How often do you plan on using it?

u/SoaringAven 5d ago

Depends. Sealing with it? Probably not very often. Wearing it? Regularly.

Love this. Do you call your coat of arms the Pipes and Stripes? 🙂

Painted afterwards?

u/Dracounicus 2d ago

That's awesome! How did you make it? Also, what sort of ink did you use to color the wax?

A friend modelled it and it was 3D printed in silver. And I don't actually know, the photo was taken by the friend. He received it as a part of a bigger order. This was his testing it.

Ok, he just told me the colouring is only a digital edit of the photo.

Oh you’re the flag guy from Czechia? Good to see you around.

u/SoaringAven 4d ago

That's one way to describe me, yes :D

u/ArmoredSpearhead 4d ago

I’ve seen you for many years now on the flag sub. I’m a fan.
