The only fan art of any sort that I have done was my Nebra Sky Disk box:

Oh yikes. I’ve made too many things to name since I used to make stuff to sell at comic conventions.
I’ll stick with my more personal projects, though:
Ornaments for my Patreon patrons:
The Munchkin box I made for a friend (did I mention I was an illustrator? That’s my drawing on there):
The Stargate I made as a collaboration with a friend (my mould, my lights and rig, my event horizon, his paint job):
And my Skyrim coasters:

Tap handle I made as a going away present for a buddy. Not my falcon model, but I added the handle, 3d printed it, and painted it.

@emacartoon Impressive range! I’m testing the waters with Xmas bazaars but that convention idea sounds like fun

Actually a smaller version is quite amenable to be laser cut. Imagine the controls as a table lamp.

I can’t decide if that makes you an optimist, an idealist, or just an ambitious sonuvagun!

Reckless perhaps though hardly Wreckless. If I live forever I might get to half the things on the list but then if I wasn’t ,I might never have even tried this

Kree! I would love to know everything about how you made that mold. It is relevant to my interests. 
This is the nerdiest thing I have done so far: a Judge badge. Here is is carved out of draftboard, thin basswood, and thick basswood.
I built the badge completely from scratch and applied gradients and shades to get the relief I wanted. (You can see some variations in how the sloped parts are cut, I was fiddling with my gradients.)
You can carve really deep in basswood, it’s great… though I still don’t know how to eliminate the “laser texture.” One of these pieces was finished with a wash to weather it, the others are flat gold coats. The weathered version looks pretty nice in person, though it’s clearly not cast metal. If I could defeat the laser texture problem, you could pull that off with a better paint job though.
But I am a bad nerd, because I mixed the badge design from the movie with the font from the comics. I do intent do build a font file for the movie’s type, though.

I would just hang on to it until inspiration strikes…
Put a 1/4" hole in it, sign your name at the bottom with 
, hang it on your wall and call it “Art”.
