Bulino is tough to learn but Chris makes it easier to understand. No curved lines, certain kind of tools and being able to look at a drawing and make mental notes of how it would be cut. Takes time but worth it. One step at a time. I admire your taking the time to learn this. I never went far with bulino, hoping you'll keep with it. Can't wait to see the progress.

Looks good so far. And the EYES have real sparkle and life.

Thank you all for the kind and inspiring thoughts. BTW.........I use a transfer for the entire procedure.

I often wonder at the folk who say they just draw the design straight onto the metal, I admit I'm transferring too. It's hard to photograph bulino. I get the light on it... tap on the engraving (on my phone) and then drag the light balance so the whole thing is much darker. Keep going and sharing.
