OK I just gotta!
SQUEEEEEE!!
TutanCaten, of course is Furaoh of the ancient land of Kem and AnkhesenCaten his (s)Queeeeen!
Making props for them will be a challenge. Still... not impossible. for the sceptres of office (Heq and Nekheq) I recommend wire and beads... the crook (Neq) could be blue or black and gold bugle beads formed into the curve with a wire core, the flail (Nekheq) coud be straight wire with bugles for the handle and then three beaded straight pieces set into sculpy for the attachment point at the tip.
You could make the golden throne by cutting out pictures of the back seat and sides and pasting them over a cardboard armature. OR go with gold foil and try to trace the designs yourself.
Will you be making NeFurtiti's crown?
She and AkhenCaten ought to be represented too.
XVIIIth Dynasty SQUEEEEEEE!
Scour eBay for ankh earrings, scarabs and the like! I have a collection of Egyptian jewelry I've been gathering since 1968!
EDIT: Went through my collection of Egyptian jewelry (collecting since 1968) and found a bunch of great stuff you can use. It's boxed and ready to go out along with blessed candles AND a container of actual Nile water, and a stone from Egypt, brought back to me by a friend!
Send me your mailing address, V V, in a private message, and I will send this off to you! You were SO wonderful in sending those necklaces, several years back, and I wanted to return the favor. There are items that could be used as background props or decoration, bits of Egyptian stuff that could be made into jewels or props. Let me know and they will be on their way.
