Contributing Member ClayB Posted February 1, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted February 1, 2008 Ok ClayB, Here's the picture you've been yammering about.It's not finished, but I will attempt to finish it. Marlon Hey Marlon, That looks really good, carving and coloring. The shading is coming along great! Looks like Uncle Pete even taught you to carve your name tiny like he does. It's too small for me to tell if you added the '08 after it, that would be a real challenge. I hope you will post another picture when it all finished. I wont quit "yammering" until you do Quote ClayB Badlands Leather Art blog Badlands Leather Art Website

Members Rawhide Posted February 1, 2008 Author Members Report Posted February 1, 2008 Thanks Tina, I've been quite facinated by your coloring as well. You create some fine work. Marlon Quote Marlon
Contributing Member Denise Posted February 1, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted February 1, 2008 One thing that you will find out is that most of the masters in this craft are just like that. Wonderful stories about wonderful people. In reading them, I got thinking that overall people are just people, regardless of how skilled they are in their area of endeavor. And while we are all amazed that they would even bother talking with us, I wonder how many of them inside themselves are amazed that others would think that way about them. They are just people enjoying other people which makes them so human and so likable. Some of the people I respect the most are the most down to earth people you would ever want to meet. Quote

Denise, How do you get your posting to appear with the large font. Yours is the first one that I could read without squintring and follow without using my curser as a guide. Whatever you do, I would sure like everyone to do so. It looks great. BTW, I do agree with you. Carlb Quote
Contributing Member Denise Posted February 2, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted February 2, 2008 Carlb, My post is in a different font and size than what is normally here because I wrote it in Word and cut and pasted it here. I don't think we will get everyone to do that, but you can make the type larger on your own computer this way. 1.) Press and hold the Control key. 2.) Turn the wheel on your mouse. One way makes everything larger. The other way makes it smaller. 3.) When you let go of both, it will stay that size till you change it again. You will have to go back and forth a bit to get the whole width, but the print will be larger. All the best, Denise Quote
