Jonathan she did a beautiful nude but I was afraid the mods would remove it. She'll be putting it back.

Hi Cheryl

I think your sketches are great. One thing I would change is rotating the eye 90 degrees clockwise. But I think this will turn out different when craved anyway.

Hiya guys! Cheryl talked me into joining yesterday.

The sketch has been removed until further notice.

Alright, here's a sketch, along with a bit of carving I did earlier.

I saw this yesterday and really liked it. I hope you're still going to do your woman too. Also Rae, is it just me or does this make more sense if you turn it on it's side? LOL. Cheryl

I just stumbled upon this thread today and would like to participate as well. Never done any leather work like this before.(and may not again)...but I've always had a love for whales.

Getting a late start might keep me from finishing by the end of the month, but I hope to learn some things in the process regardless.

And obviously...I don't know how to post a pic either

Kingdomino: just join in when you have time for it. I will maybe not have time to work on my stuff until the weekend. So no hurry here. As far as I understood Cheryl everything should be easy going in this contest :)

RaeNae: I like your design very much. One suggestion you may want to try out is to lift the segmented part a little by cutting that part loose with an exacto knife in a very flat angle. (not the whole thing only a little bit) then you can lift that part with a modeling spoon.

I'm interested in our other design too. Maybe you can send me a pm with pic or pst it in the adult section.

So here is what I did so far... Sketch is carved and beveled. I lready made an mistake. The center line between the front and back part of the grave stone shouldn't have been carved. I don't like how it looks now, but I won't start new, cause I can't afford to toss that much leather into the bin.

I will do some detail work at the hand, lift certain parts of it. At the bottom end of the arm, I will add some more lines to make it look more disturbed as suggested by Cheryl.

I will use a matter around hand, gravestone and moon/cloud to make it more 3d. The earth will get some detail with modeeling spoon more or less the same as the carved lines but only modeled.

Two ting I still have to find a decisions is how to texture the stone, because it looks so empty and wether I should add a silhouette of a bat in the upper left corner which looks empty too.

Have a nice evening

Jonathan
