Amber R. King-Southern Posted April 15, 2017 Report Posted April 15, 2017 I know I ask for a lot of help. I'm still learning. 👩â€ðŸ«. I got a request for this and, this is what I have made so far. But I'm having trouble with the horse. I don't want just the shape of the horse and rider I want the detail also. How do I go about it so there's not just a big hole in the skull? Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you Amber Quote
worbler Posted April 15, 2017 Report Posted April 15, 2017 You could cut the white and overlay the black onto a backer. Quote
DonR Posted April 15, 2017 Report Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) In order to make it a "cut the black" pattern you need to get rid of the floaters in the horse detail. To do that you will need to add bridges as shown on the attached. If you provide an "unwrinkled" picture I will be happy to fix it for you. It is going to be very fragile though.Don R Edited April 15, 2017 by DonR Quote
Amber R. King-Southern Posted April 15, 2017 Author Report Posted April 15, 2017 Sorry about the wrinkleness. It's 4 pages put together so it's going to be a bigger project to work on Thank you. Amber Quote

Amber R. King-Southern Posted April 15, 2017 Author Report Posted April 15, 2017 Thank you. Another question. The top of the skull the rounded part. Am I going to have to make bridges anywhere on that? The only part holding it together is by the eyes. Quote
blights69 Posted April 15, 2017 Report Posted April 15, 2017 I would print the pattern then when you put it on the wood move the top lettering down so it touches the skull line then do not cut out the skull line in between the words it will then have 2 large bridges on top of the skull, cannot show you what I mean by changing you pattern i am not that good on pattern making but I know what I mean if that helps lol Frank Quote
multitom Posted April 15, 2017 Report Posted April 15, 2017 Amber , after printing u can add a bridge on to the end of the spear which touches the skull (up) more over with any patterns after printing if you find that a certain line is very thin u can go ahead and thicken it with a whitener and honestly I have no idea the level of scrolling you are at:-), so if it looks to intimidating go ahead and alter it,we all have done it at some point. Thanks Quote
Birchbark Posted April 15, 2017 Report Posted April 15, 2017 Here's another way you might go and cut the black. But i agree with most others, it would be best to make it a cut the white pattern, IMO. Russell ChelCass, frankorona and Scrolling Steve 3 Quote
DonR Posted April 15, 2017 Report Posted April 15, 2017 If I was going to cut it, I think I would go with something like this. Don R ChelCass and frankorona 2 Quote
