Thanks!!!
I'm going to try this technique, is there any burin profile format that helps not to leave so much burr. I used a single, square and diamond burin in this engraving for shallow and wide cuts.

Taking advantage of the topic, I would like to know if this diamond shading technique is a dot if it uses a dry point to create the dot.
I zoomed in on the images for easier viewing.
Thanks
Hello friend of the Forum, could you help me with a doubt about how to use a scraper to remove burrs left by the burin and how to finish intaglio plates, because when I use my scraper the plate is always scratched no matter how careful I am to leave it the scraper parallel to the board...
Really, only those who engraver know the art know all the meticulous work of cutting the metal, giving it shapes that are involved in the process and the value it adds. Good example yours.
Sometimes I also take a while to complete an engraving, but I'm very anxious to finish it and I've noticed that when I try to work faster, it doesn't work so well.

Hello, thank you very much for your observation, I sometimes notice some friction when cutting, because I still don't have an engraving ball, so I use a thick glass plate as a base and a soft fabric underneath to make turning easier. But this support has helped me a lot. I will practice more...

Thank you very much for your opinion
Hello Forum friends, I'm still new here and I'm learning a lot about engraving. This is my most recent engraved plaque. Following the tips I received here, this time I added hatches and closed the contours well. But I would like the opinion of friends here on the
Forum, where I can improve and...
Yes, what you said makes perfect sense. But on the copper base I use, any touch 2 to 3 days is already oxidized. I always try to wipe the surface after work with a dry cloth to avoid this.
Thanks
Hello, thank you very much for the information, I did not know about this difference between cold and hot rolled steel. This can help with my choices.

Actually the steels I tested all rust, copper still has the advantage of just darkening or fixing stained.
But I am very happy with all the help I receive here from more experienced friends, and with that I have learned a lot.
Best Regards
