Had a little play over the weekend with the bits I have been attempting to carve.
Tidied the eyes and nose up on the first piece, I don't wanna go mad on this cos it will always be my first piece init?
This one was done in my lunch break with a pen knife, a lump of something found in the par cark, later soaked in ca to hold it together.
My first attempt at relief carving, a small piece marked out with my cnc to get the sharp edges and guide me.
Cheating I know but it don't say how the score was achieved on the score card init?
I did the rest by hand on a piece of MDF as it has no grain to follow, soaked it in Danish oil to try and bring the depth out a bit.
Finally finished my Dolphin and attached it to a stick, epoxy was still curing when pic tooken but it has come out not to terrible.
The new owner is over the moon with it, that's good enuff for me init?
