Here is a guitar strap I am working on for a customers son. I hope to have it finished tonight and will post the finished piece but wanted to show what I have so far. There are a few places I wish I could change but it is to late now... The customer is really happy with it so far.

thats a nice job on carving the letterforms...they pop against the clean background......nice effect, very 3D...

I've learned through painful trial and error that when i carve a font with lots of fiddly bits, like this one - i

tend to carve it a bit bigger, because I wind up shrinking the design with all the noodling and bevelling that's required.

So in response to that, I "beef up" the tiny and spindly parts and make them

a bit thicker and substantial, hence, avoiding them turning to mouse shit.

as always YMMV

Looking good Bro!!!

Barbed wire is nice and I love the lettering. Nice font and execution with it!

Looking forward to see it finished!
