Original Illustration engraved in Proofgrade Maple Plywood

Had a bit of trouble getting the machine to handle my detailed lineart- but I am super excited I somehow got it to work. It’s about 9 inches tall, took about 1:45 to engrave.

What gorgeous art! (really wish I could draw like that - might actually get some use out of this thing!) :grinning:

Thank you!! Yeah I wish I could say I know how I made it work- It gave me a hard time for hours the other day but somehow it worked this time. Weird but I’ll take it! :wink:

I wish I had a skill like yours!

I did this engrave from a friend’s drawing. It started as 8x10 which she scanned. I engraved it as 3x5, 45min on maple PG. I just slapped a border on to cut it.

You artistic people amaze me! :slight_smile:

that’s just too nice not to have a watermark/signature/branding

That’s true. I probably should put my logo at the bottom. I just hate distracting from the art with it! but its unwise to share with no mark. oops

I hear that.
