Bluesman Report post Posted July 2, 2012 Picked up the floral carving DVD from a member here and was totally blown away. It is a two DVD set and I finished viewing the first one, yesterday. I really got my monies worth. He goes over little items that when you hear it and see it you go, that's cool. If you ever get a chance or can afford a new set get it. He starts with tools and knives, sharpening, casing, cutting and then onto block and basket weave border stamping, as well as how to price your work. Then he gets into the actual floral carving. His use of tools is incredible. When you see how and why he does what he does you begin to understand how the shading and 3D illusions are acheived. This will enhance your carving 20 fold. Now onto DVD #2. Jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King's X Report post Posted July 2, 2012 I agree with you. I own the set. For this type of carving/tooling, he does a great job. He is just as willing in person to help critique your work. Enjoy the second DVD. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
