Amulet of Plot

Concept art for an important prop in my story. Yes, I'm writing a fantasy story with an amulet. I feel terribly original.

The funny thing is I had been piecing together how I thought this would look when my grandma invited me to look through her jewelry to see if there was anything I wanted. Lo and behold, there was a necklace that looked almost like what I had in mind, chain and all.

This is heavily based on that necklace. I'm not sold on the coloring and I need to work on the design of the star trail some more, but otherwise it turned out rather well.

Now I want the jewelry-making skills necessary to make this in real life.
