Keeping with the idea of experimenting with the backings, I had tried out a thicker wire weave I had seen on YouTube. The reason why I had chosen this type of weaving was for it's thickness, which I thought would better shape the v I was trying to achieve. It also allowed me the chance to try a more compact weave as oppose to the more open weave I had previously done.
When I was doing the silver version of the weave, I decided to use less wire so as to see how it would look in comparison to thicker one on top.
