Copper sheet cover:
I took the 8 mm adhesive copper, I made a brass shape with guides to cut the shape of the rivets.
The rivets are engraved with two toothed wheels of different sizes for the edges and for the central part.

Aging of copper.
I wanted to give an antique effect with the copper green patina, treating the surface with a product to create the green patina.

Really beautiful work!  I like how your copper plating came out.  Can I ask what you used to achieve that effect?

I used this product purchased on e-bay:

Green / White (Tiffany Green) Patina Solution, Copper, Brass

https://www.ebay.it/itm/Green-White-Tiffany-Green-Patina-Solution-Copper-Brass-etc-15-30-45ml-/262953186904

I did some pieces of copper before testing.
You have to do different applications with the brush and when it is still wet, clean the surface with a damp cloth.
The liquid is a bit irritating, you must use a mask and use it in an airy environment.

Thank you very much!  I hope to get a similar effect on my Charles Morgan.  Really appreciate it!

Your patina is looking tremendous. What did you used to get this effect?

Cheers,
