The Maiden Voyage of the Nautilus Submarine

Art’s and my Squid Attacks the Nautilus Submarine Pendant is ready for it’s maiden voyage.  Lower the periscope,  batten down the hatches, fill the ballasts and submerge for 20,000 fathoms of adventure. The ticket price is quite reasonable.

This collaborative design, the Squid Attacks the Nautilus Submarine Pendant is inspired by Jules Verne’s classic tale, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. My husband, Art (aka artbobo) rendered the Nautilus using a 3-D  Rhino Cad program. His 3-D image was “printed” and he subsequently handed me a miniature blue submarine wax. Using my old school skills of wax sculpting, I created the miniature squid and wrapped tiny squid tentacles around the length of the submarine.
