Hi everybody!
Here is a skinner I made few months ago and finally I decide what to engrave on the bolsters......
On the left side I engraved a Mask 1.500 years style, and on the right side there is an acantus style leaf.
Any comments and suggestions are welcome as usual!
Many thanks for taking a look
Bye:tiphat:
Carlo

Ciao, Carlo. You cutting looks clean, but I think you have too much empty background areas. A few nice leaves to fill those empty spaces would be a big help.
Cheers / ~Sam

Maybe I should add a simple border with double wheat leaves or running leaves..the same I learned to engrave during the course in Antwerp...why I didn't think about it before???
