    Question: Andu Bulino pen quality??

    I wonder if an old airbrush could be converted on the front end with a piston attachment allowing you to still use the stock plunger to control the air to drive it all.

    Photorealistic/Advanced bulino questions

    Nice. I would have went into the curves panel and brought out the highlights on the body a little more. I did it on my phone real quick but procreate has way more options. This way the body will read a little easier.

    Hopefully it helps. Can’t wait to see how your next one comes out.

    Photorealistic/Advanced bulino questions

    Look at the difference in these two pics. They are pretty much the same angle but the one has more shading making the highlights stand out more.

    Lindsay template question

    Great idea. I made some out of copper tubing but having it all in one piece is way better.

    Photorealistic/Advanced bulino questions

    Coming from strictly an art prospective studying the art form of Chiaroscuro might help a lot when trying to achieve realistic design goals. When I was learning how to tattoo portraits years ago learning and understanding how lights and darks work together gave my artwork a lot more dimension...

    Lindsay template question

    I don’t know if this helps or if I can even post it here, but I found this a while ago. It helped me with the angles I need for stainless steel.

    Critique Request Skull pendant

    I’m working on this pendant I made from a piece of 416SS. I keep going back to it every couple days and see something with fresh eyes that I need to address but I think I’m calling it done.

    Critique Request Knife I did.

    Thank you. Yeah I’ve been seeing a lot of people doing spyderco knives. I plan on getting one soon and trying one out. I even noticed some guys selling copper and brass scales for certain models making them easier to engrave.

    Scrimshaw: Second attempt at scrimshaw

    Amazing job on this. You can see your background of being an artist come through with the softness of the edges but still being able to see the individual hairs on the chin and roundness on the eye.

    Thank you I will definitely try that next time.

    Critique Request Knife I did.

    Thank you. I did disassemble the knife and screwed it down through the holes to a block of wood. I did find a steeper face angle seems to help it’s just trading off a lil on seeing what I’m doing.

    Critique Request Knife I did.

    Thank you. I think you’re absolutely correct it’s always when I’m doing a tight turn. I think I’m trying to take out to much on a single pass. I’m working on some other stainless stuff and I am taking lighter cuts and trying to pay attention.

    More practice.

    Looks great to me. This post was a great read for someone like me that has really never tried this style. I was looking to see if you implemented what Marcus was suggesting. But i can’t tell on my phone it’s to blurry when I zoom in.

    Critique Request Knife I did.

    No I only have a few carbide gravers, and only one 105*, so I had to stop and sharpen every time it happened. I found taking lighter passes seem to help with being able to go longer in between breaking off the tip. But I’m also pretty new to this maybe someone can answer this better.
