thanks.......sad to say this but all i did was just sit down and read RONS ADVANCED book.
back when i first got it .....to be very honest.....i just looked at the pictures and glanced over a few words.

some time back i injured my arm......so not being able to engrave i ramped up the sketching. i just kept playing with different ideas and going back thru the advanced book.


i really think that i had reached a point where i was mature enough to grasp the ideas of what things are susposed to look like.
thought i had a good idea, but really didnt know how to get there.
so i say if you want to improve something .....maybe you should read the instructions.
i also had some very good instruction from johny weyert.

i know that there are several areas on this engraving that need to be addressed........rome was not built in a day.
