A bit more duck

[phil]

Hello all. I posted a pic of my first attempt of a duck 2 weeks ago. Only his head and a few feathers were done then. I have just done a little more this afternoon. I know its not great but it is my first attempt at an animal. I am trying to copy the duck on the back of the Basic technique for bulino engraving box. I have never done any bulino engraving but was keen to give it ago and ordered the dvd. This was done using the techniques in that dvd so I can really recommend it to you.( That is if you think the duck looks ok. If not I still recommend the dvd as it is my lack of experience rather than the teaching!)

Looks good to me also, can't Waite to see it finished

Can't find anything wrong with it. You engraved that like "water off a ducks back".

Great! Very well done !

Looking good so far! Keep at it. How large did you make it?

 

[phil]

Thanks for your feedback so far. I have never seen any real life engraving on guns, only what is in books and on the internet so it is reassuring to know from you guys that I am on the right track. The size of this plate is 2inches square.

Unless the ducks leg falls off I think you've got it down, congratulations
