Bump. Any update on the cufflinks Swindy? If it won't be done in time for the QM summit (just a month away now!) - I can always order some "close enough" ones no problem. Thanks again for spearheading this!

I'm so sorry to say this, but a month from now might be hard to achieve. :cry:
Just a little trouble along in the process of designing them and so forth.

We'll get there eventually though, I'm sure, and I'll make another thread then just to see how many folks are still interested.

Thanks for the kind words.

Swindiana is not responsible for the design delay - yours truly, on the other hand, is (sorry for the lack of updates, mate - been working a bit too much, as usual :( ). In between episodes of real life, I've been wrestling with the main issue - getting the Udjat design on the cufflinks as screen-accurate as possible by using screencaps... source material is pretty meager to say the least. I've collected a variety of Horus-eye images and tried to extrapolate something plausible... needs a bit more work though.

My apologies. Expect an update within the next days.

Swindy & SJ - NO APOLOGIES NEEDED. (Nor accepted, so there. ;))

You're apologizing for spending more time to get it right??? :-k PLEASE! You are doing a lot of folks here a service. I appreciate that you haven't 'settled', and that you are doing this at all to begin with. ;)

Expressed very eloquently Jerry...for a scoundrel! :wink:
I wholeheartedly second the sentiment. Thanks for all the work you're doing so we don't have to, uh maybe you should skip that last bit. 8-[

I could easily do four leaf clover cuff links. It's just a matter of finding time to do it! :P

By the way I'm still down for a set of Eye of Horus cuff links, even though it appears that enough people have raised their hands! I'm sort of a Horus fanatic.

Cheers,

hahahah...15 minutes, not bad...I figured it would take you 20 after I posted. ;) Yeah, I didn't bother even asking where he found them, because I knew you'd be able to do them easily, and why WOULDN'T I want ones that match my lighter? ;)

Dear friends.

I've been in contact with Indy Magnoli regarding the cufflinks. I will not give too much away, but since it has been taking a while for us to get on with it, it is all on his table now. Watch this space or another thread coming along very soon regarding the subject.

Best regards,
Swindiana

Yes, as Swindiana and I seem to have been running a parallel course for a while on this project, I decided to contact him about it. He has graciously passed the sole reigns onto me. I'm hoping to have these available in a little over a month. I will keep you all posted!

Kind regards,
Indy
