I might be creating another piece with “Perpetual No.1” DNA. I’ve been exploring ways to update and improve the design, while holding onto the elements that make it work so well.
New additions include:
-Slightly larger, shadow-style moon phase display.
-Thin trim on the edge of the number panels for a little more depth and detail.
-Slightly different gear proportions.
There’s no type in the radial number panels yet. I’ve printed out copies so that I can experiment with different number styles. Same with the hands and gear-spokes. Once I’ve solidified the design of those elements I’ll incorporate them into a finished drawing.
More soon!
