Default Got Bored And Tried Something New
Well I got this woodburner as I needed it for my kachina dolls that I carved.
So I got a little bored and thought I would try something a little different.
I took this pattern of my folks and I already made a potrait with a scroll saw for them ,so now I thought I would try it with the wood burner.
I did not think it would really come out as good as it did.
Please let me know what you think of this.
This is the first time I did anything like this with a burner.
James

As design, it's excellent. I'd like to see more modelling in their clothes.
Quite dark in the upper left and quite pale in the lower right. I expect that's hard to do but take a look at some "linen fold" carving, might be some ideas there.
