Wow Chris,
It is absolutely beautiful and stunning art work. Who ever thought that the two subjects will compliment each other so much ( soft and rugged ). Picture perfect, if I may say.

Cheers

Chris as I said over at the Lindsay forum --absolutly gorgeous.

Van, "Who ever thought that the two subjects will compliment each other so much" The Knights who lived in the castles! That's who.

As always your work is breath taking. Your client is a fortunate person.

Beautiful Chris! How do you decide whether to use lines only, dots only or a combination of the two? Either way you work is great to study and look at. :)

Wow Chris!

When someone gives you a theme you stick to it, don't you?

Beautiful work and I doubt you'd find one person in a hundred who wouldn't say the them was "nudes and castles".

I hope I can someday work up near your level of execution, even if I lack the artistic skills to do this kind of work.

Stunning work as usual Chris. I also would be curious to know how many hours it took to engrave.

Thanks for posting it.

Man you can do some really impressive engravings. I just admire the way you put life in the engraving!
You are a master for sure!

Very striking and powerful piece of engraving. I'd hate to have to try to top this.

Extremely nice Chris. Very tastefully seductive. Chris do sell any castings of your work. A piece like this would be very beneficial to be able to study.

As it takes two artists to make a project like this come to life I would like to add that Tom Overeynder made the knife specifically for this project. Like Chris he is great to work with.
