Hi,this is an attempt to fill a space properly. I know its just a circle but thats whats up with it. It is cut on the back of an old cull silver dollar so the diameter is just short of 1 1/2 inches. THe whole thing was cut with a 120 degree graver with a 45 degree face and a 15 degree heel. I am still learning to control that 120 and it shows here and there.
I am torn about shading the design or background removal, many of the open areas are very small and that does intimidate me some. I also know my idea of small areas on an engraving is probably way ,way bigger that most Engravers think of as small, but background removal still is a learning process for me. :thinking:
Of course any coments on the cutting or design are more than welcome and needed. If anyone has an opinion on shading or background removal that would be nice too.
