Fox Spirit and Deuce of Gears Instagram video

Originally commissioned by Sci-Fi author Yoon Ha Lee. I developed this design from his supplied reference materials. it is based on a character in his first novel NineFox Gambit - he is a ghost general whose symbol is a fox, and whose battle emblem is the two gears (Deuce of Gears in the story). Yoon was partly inspired by Korean and Japanese stories of fox spirits.

*The images in this pen were laser engraved and then hand filled with pearlescent powder and resin; similar to the urushi technique called Chinkin (沈金). It's not painted or printed. The roll-stopper was 3D printed in wax then cast in bronze.
