Brilliant, brilliant work, Pyriel-

I've got a question about the "tablets" too, how did you choose the angles/placement of said NMM horizon lines/reflections? Also, what thinking did you use to decide which would be subtler/grey and which would be smaller, blacker ones? Or did it just "feel right"? I really want to do something similar but lack the confidence.

Well, I´m a geologist/geophysicist (not working as it though) so I have actually been studying stone (not only looking at it) for quite some time. That might explain some of the "feeling" for it.

But to be true I think I got most of the some feel from actually reading Asterix comics, my favorite comixs
There was always some roman guy chipping away at marble tablets in there, lol.

I think a cross lorraine would be more visually interesting and closer visually to the inquisition than a papal cross.

I disagree, the lorraine only has two bars across the middle "I" and they are not even in the middle.
The papal cross (one of them at least) has three bars with the middle one being centered, just like the =I= symbol but with different bar spacing.

I might make this again some time (and put some quality effort into it) using a public domain "papal cross" instead, pretty close to the =I= to be usable.

But this is eventually far into the future, meanwhile I think I could trade a piece or two away.

You could leave off the inquisition icons and people can always add forge world etched brass.

Nice work. I love the top hatch... People tend to get carried away with adding detail and forget that the thing still needs to open in the middle...
