Hello everyone.
After a long hiatus. I have trained myself to have this work. I still need more practice. I hope that everyone will give you advice. To guide me to develop myself further.
The use of language that may not be good. I was one of Thailand.

Thank you very much.

Hi Titian,


You were in Thailand? Or you are in Thailand now? (the word "was" is past tense - everything else you wrote is fine)

If this is your first attempt at making and engraving buckle you have done very well. Very few people could match that on the first try.

My only advice would be relating to the banner. Since it is the center of the piece it immediately attracts the eye.

If the lettering does not get gradually larger as it moves to the right - the banner should not be getting appreciably wider either... Everything else is placed and cut fairly symetrically, so you should try to keep that throughout the piece.

i agree with brian. i think the ribbon should be uniform in width. other than that, i think it's a nice looking buckle.

Sawadee krab- nice looking buckle, and the banner looks prety darn good, I think you were trying to give it an "Antique" look.
In western style, buckles usually have a border of some knid, but overall it looks great.
Are you in Thailand, or where?
What was the event, and where?

Thanks a lot to recommend it. I used to practice and develop my work further.
This buckle made ​​in Bangkok to show the award the past week.

Engrave work in Thailand. No teaching, there are very few people do Engrave.
I learn from all of you. Everyone is my teacher.:)
