I think the cows turned out cute. :-)<br /><br />BMc- one of these days I'll manage to educate you all as to the proper terminology. ;-) The image is first "scribed" (scratched) onto the metal. There are other ways too, but I scribed it. No pencil, it's just sitting there for scale, because it was within reach. The "graver" (tool) is used to make lines or dots. In this case, all lines, though remember a very short line isn't much more than a dot!<br /><br />Jan- yeah, no scrolls for me. Maybe some day. I am going about this engraving thing somewhat backwards. People will usually start with scrolls, and many will insist that people learn scrolls first. After frittering around and getting totally hung up and roadblocked, I reached the conclusion that if I HAVE TO learn scrolls first, it's not going to happen. I WANT to do figurative work in this style, so I need to pursue that first. Right now I really don't want to engrave scrolls, I'm not sure what's up with that but it's a major hangup right now, so I'll just skip that for now. Maybe they'll come along later. Maybe they won't?Katherine Plumerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15270985693010461806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13958960.post-59236569258323381692010-07-28T08:47:16.730-07:002010-07-28T08:47:16.730-07:00Well shoot, I was expecting those big swashy desig...Well shoot, I was expecting those big swashy design things and what I see is another chicken staring at me.

Is it done in pencil and then you go in with the engraver to make lines or dots? -BMc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13958960.post-4154191112572064952010-07-28T03:34:22.969-07:002010-07-28T03:34:22.969-07:00The cowboy scrim is your usual great work.

It's already as good as much of what I see on the forums ans elsewhere. That's one fine chicken coming along.Bob Eastonhttp://bob-easton.com/blognoreply@blogger.com
