    Critique Request Bulino work

    very nicely done. Perhaps a few more darker lines on the left side of the jaw in the hair to brink it out the jaw a bit more like you have on the right side. Do as you feel it and not try to make a photo.

    Dani. You are looking at these photos in an extreme large state. As such you csn see how the detail is done. I would assume at it’s full small size these all blend together in a very subtle way to create the shading and form. Engraving is meant to be looked with the naked eye. You look at it...
