Nice work.

Beautiful ! How do you get the rounded look in the folds? With a rounded graver. Or cut a tiny circle?

Thank you! I suppose you are talking about the last photos of the watch bracelet links. It´s all done with a normal Universal 116 sharpened graver.. it´s the exact same graver I use for all of my engraving. Some times I make the face more steep, but since this was so small it´s easier to see the tip with a normal 45 degree face..

If you have a look on the video, you will see Hope that answers your question?

 

[Sinterklaas]

Yes that answers my question. I will check the video. Thanks your time.

Probably not suits everyone, but I like experimenting.. sometimes it gives me new ideas

Good idea! I have some ideas, but just struggle a little with time.. as most of us I guess

Was trying a little directional lightening/shading today.. it could be better, but I gave it a go...

Fine work.

The center looks like a face with a long nose at first glance. I do enjoy seeing your work, thanks.

I didn’t see that, but I I had plans to put something in the “nose”.. and had a little different plans for the top with all the “balls” but I stopped.. Shading didn’t turn out as good as I hoped, but it’s only one way to get there.. trying again Thanks!

I was using a Lindsay Classic just idling very very lightly.. so mostly hand pressure but I like when idling just a tiny bit

In the tool I have a super sharp carbalt
