I love it. I might 3d model it after the challenge. If you're ok with that of course.

I love drawing the compass on my maps. I have a sketch of what I want to do. It's going to be a metallic compass fitted with some kind of gem. Not sure if it is going to be on a slab or maybe a pile of coins. Depends on how much time I permit myself to make it. My current sketch is just an outline. The circles were going to be studs maybe with gems or pearls in them. I might get another one up later tonight since I will have some time to work on it. Well anyway, just wanted to jump in on this challenge so here you go.

Nice start! This sounds like it'd be perfect for a map to a dragon's hoard or a pirate's treasure or something![]()
Yes that is perfectly fine! I finished the outline and already started adding gems and color but I will put the outline here in case you wanted it.
Also thanks for the encouragement everyone! I just kinda posted and ran yesterday, hehe. I will have color and stuff in my next update.

Ok, so here is the basic color scheme I am going for. I was thinking of maybe making each of the gems a different color to give it variety. I was going for a bronzish gold color for the main part. I am still not happy with the circle. But let me know what you think!

Really nice start, especially for a new member. Imo it is better to leave the gems in one color, too many different ones would make it bling to much, if i would change i would add just one extra color for half of them. I agree about the circle, it is a bit to wide to be plain so you could add some sketcing or text inside it or divide it into two thinner ones that are connected on a few spots etc. Anyway great start![]()

Yeah, that is really nice. I like the heavy "tarnishing" or shadowing of the circle, it gives it character. But I agree with Barek about either making it thinner, dividing it into 2 circles, or some scrollwork to dress it up a little.
