The first picture is today's work. The second picture is from many months ago
Inspired by watching Sam's video, I decided to do some practice this morning. I laid out a stacked scroll in illustrator then filled in with some familiar elements.
I will note that I only transfered the scroll backbones to the plate, then drew in by hand all the elements. I used the scroll practice design from several months ago as a guide but winged it made up some other elements. I also printed the scroll on paper and drew the filler first on paper with some shading, then went to the metal for the engraving.
I put the picture up of the first time I cut the scroll practice design to show the difference in my engraving from then to now.
I'm not crazy about the way I treated the center element of large scroll at the bottom, but I'm working on it.
