Default just finished a relief wall plaque
Hey all! Just wanted to share some pics of a wall plaque I just finished. It's for two guys that have a podcast inline that I'm a big fan of (yes I know I'm a dork). Anyways, Let me know what you think. I also made a YouTube video of how I made it, so check it out! How to carve a relief style plaque - YouTube

Very nice!
How do you smooth the tight spots around and inside the letters?

Thanks everyone. To answere your question Pete, I use very small pieces of sandpaper or diamond power carving bits. I find one that has a flat top and just holding it in my hand, use it to sand tight spots.
