smzielke Report post Posted August 8, 2014 I started fooling around with carving again. Its been a while since the boy scouts. Anyways a knocked out a guitar strap for a friend with some hobo nickels and railroad tracks with some flowerlies and a carnation banjo strap. I'm happy with how they turned out. I wish my friend would have had me dye some of his. Need to polish up my work a bit and exercise a bit of patience. The antiquing washed through the flowers on the carnation because I didn't let the blocking dry thoroughly (I think). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MonicaJacobson Report post Posted August 8, 2014 Your tooling style and artwork is awesome. Did you draw it yourself? I really like the railroad track and the art nouveau flower. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smzielke Report post Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) Hey, thanks! The tracks and the stem of the carnations I drew. Borrowed the actual flower from a Tandy Doodle Page. Edited August 9, 2014 by smzielke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grey Drakkon Report post Posted August 13, 2014 The carnation is lovely, and I really like the flow of the train track and roses on the other strap. It makes you want to look at it twice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
