    Default Update/Reference (Low, low, low relief portrait)

    About my last thread (https://www.woodworkforums.com/f10/lo...rtrait-172962/)...

    As I was about to update my blog, I found back this pict I took a few years ago in the V&A museum in London.
    This is the coins which made me want to try this myself. Maybe 1-2mm more than mine, but such a nice work !

    So there is still some improvement to get !
    This is boxwood btw.

    I really like your piece Copeau, relief is hard to get "just right" very well done.

    I assume you are aware of Ian Norburys downloadable tutorials on the subject? Carving a Portrait in Relief | Ian Norbury
