Default Re: Damascening a sheep with a Lindsay

Karl,Tezah,J,thanks for the comments, the gold is fully punched down before I start sculpting. And the horns are sculpted also with a flatback. Then it is punched up and stipples a bit. As the hobo engravers know, .005 can leave a lot of room for sculpting
