Absolutely beautiful!!  I believe you need another title added to your list :)  What do you use for cleaning.  I have tried many tools, but still seem to have a heavy hand on the deasert patina.  You have worked out the tecnique to  perfection!

I use only a dull dental pic, a needle sharp dental pic, scalpel, and binocular microscope.  No soaking in oil or water.

I really like the desert patina look.  I have a couple in my personal gallery and have recently purchased a Maximianus one that also has this look.  Yours are quite nice Joe. 
Best, Noah
