Masterful,

Can’t wait too some more progress.

Cheers Matt.

Photo carving up date: I didn't get as much done yesterday, that JOB thing got in the way. So I'm making progress lots of outline cutting and now boring to remove large sections. I also started some 3-D carving in a few places. If you have any questions please just ask.

I was able to remove the large sections that had been bored and add some details.

Wow! Very GOT.

Saw the first set of pictures, wasn't interested, didn't really read what you said but...........................................hold on, there's some bloody works of art in the creation here. I'm looking forward to seeing the next couple of updates.

Thank you Flintlock and brainstrust

Phoenix & Dragon update Now that I have the large pieces removed around the first dragon I've started adding some 3-D details. I'm showing this now because by the next post it will have changed quite a bit. For those who are wanting to do this type of carving you can see how it changes from the last post to the next post.

Okay everyone I've now covered the first section with tape and moved to the other dragon. This was done because the first part was getting a bit thin in areas. So here's what I've done so far today.

I said this would be interesting and it certainly is, I'm like a little kid waiting to open presents, can't wait to see the finished creation.

Thank you, I really like reading this. I'm so glad there many who are enjoying following this piece as it comes to life, still pyrography and color to add.

Dragon & Phoenix
The carving continues when I have time. I had to change a flame at the bottom of the tail on this dragon the material was not thick enough to make 3 layers work. You can see in the photos as I'm correcting this, also I've removed a great deal more bulk material.

Dragon & Phoenix
I did more refining shaping & sanding, this time around the dragon's head. I also removed more bulk and smoothed the body.

impressive piece, love the carving
