Sheridan Checkbook cover design by Jim Linnell

[BearMan]

Here is a checkbook cover I just finished tooling. The sheridan style design is by Jim Linnell. I hope that I did him justice. I just got my Photo Studio/tent,,, & just had to try it out. It Really helps ALOT!! I just need to get a few things figured out,,, like the best angle to prop the piece,,, & the best angles for the lights(which came with the tent). But for the first picture with it,,, I'm pretty impressed!

Soooo what do "Ya'LL" think??? Ed the"BearMan"

WOW..I would love to be able to carve like that!

very nice work, but.... get rid of the matting tool for the background and get you some bar grounder or round grounders for the sheridan work. Just a suggestion to make a great piece of work better.

Looks really good but I agree with randy I like the bar grounder with sheridan.

What is that matter though I think it could look really cool on some other projects.

What does a bar grounder look like?

Hello Tom,

A Bar Grounder is a series of small circles gouped very close together. They can be in multiples of 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 sometimes more. They are right, I should have used a bar grounder for the background. I had already started with the one I used here, without thinking. By then I was committed,,, sooo I had to finish it out. But,,, it would be better with a bar grounder type of background.

Thanks Everybody for all the nice comments!! I knew somebody would see the "substitution" on the background mistake. Force of habit can be a terrible thing,,, hehehe I just started going, before I realized,,, & said a few "Choice" words!! Ohhh well
