Thanks for all the positive feedback. For the oxidizing or patination, I used liver of sulphur gel. I used a specific gel for this, I found it gives me the best results, and to brush it off to show detail I used 2x2 pads, again from a specific source. I will post links to both these later on in the day. This process isnt offered through Shapeways, its something I did afterwards.

OK, here is what I used and where they can be purchased.

I also used laytex gloves, the ones without powder, 3 plastic bowls and one wooden chopstick. These can be purchased at your local 99 cent store.
