jrdunn Report post Posted November 26, 2022 That is beauitiful! I really like carving/tooling but have really never liked flowers(I know, my therapist is looking into that.), so I really like oak leaves. Don't those high "lifts" get a lot of wear during use? Don't get me wrong, that is some of the best looking oak leaves I've seen. If I could do something like that I would dislocate my shoulder patting myself on the back. Is the holster mostly a showpiece? Just a burning question in my feeble mind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even with use should just look better with patina. I was just having fun bringing leaves to life. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dikman Report post Posted November 30, 2022 That is very impressive work on the leaves. Having attempted, unsuccessfully, something similar, I can appreciate the skill involved. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least for now I think I finial got it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
