    Sorry John...I didn't mean to

    Some beautiful engraving work and outstanding shading. Wonderful scrollwork, borders and backgrounding. Not my thing, but If you are into skulls, these are about the best I've seen. Some real artistic talent displayed here!

    Critique request Celtic High Cross
