I know this is an old thread but I just found it right now. I realy like that technic.
It is very effective. Pierre demonstrated it to me when I met him at the guns exibition in Nürnberg.

Thank you for showing Rocco :thumbsup:

The fourth picture down appears to be gold wire inlay. How did you go from there to the next picture completely filled with gold? Was this done with one gold wire-inlayed a piece at a time rather than a cut sheet hammered in place for the buffalo body?

That's a beautiful gold inlay and good anatomy but why is the head of the Cape Buffalo floating in mid air and not framed into a beautiful boarder? :confused: J.J.
