Apart from the people here being just great a lot of people are very open about sharing ideas and giving little tips to help others out.

  14. HI Don. Thanks for your opinion and I must say the way you filled it in on the pic made it look nice, but I have a thing when it comes to animals eyes, I much prefer to keep them all black because I find that it is usually the flash from the camera that highlights the eyes. Still that is just my liking. Thanks for your input, I really appreciate. It is only through constructive criticism that we can get better. Cheers Tony

  21. Thanks Paul! Tony

  23. Hi I once had this problem when using plywood, which is my material of choice for portraits. This happened to me when I tried an experiment of transferring the pattern onto the plywood instead of using a regular paper pattern. I tried ironing the transfer on and the heat gave it a major bow which made it impossible to use. I can't give you a solution as to how to fix it except turn it over and weight it down for a week or so but the bowing might be heat related so if you store your material in a hot place, try changing it to somewhere cooler. Don't know if this will help or not but just giving my tuppence. Cheers Tony
  24. Well folks I been away for quite a time now as have been out of commission with my back but now am on the mend and have managed to get my blade working again without going into spasms from the pain. My cousin's friend had a Westie that recently went to that great kennel in the sky and asked if I could do a portrait for her and came up with this. As usual all comments are welcome and very much appreciated. Cheers and take care all! Tony
  25. Awesome work Dave. Your inlay skills are top notch and never fail to leave me staring! Well done mate. Tony
