Glassartist 46 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 thats stunning mate you do the work your self Yes this is all my own work-done using a dental drill .I have been a professional engraver for 32 years can you put some of your other work up, would be good to see and its something different from what i usually see on here Have a look on his website there's loads of examples http://www.davidwhymancrystal.co.uk/hunting-shooting-and-fishing/. Some really nice work and very detailed, how long does each engraving take? The stock engravings are cool too, but what kind of price range does your work sell for? Usually an absence of price means I can't afford it, but there will be some on here who would love their own face carved on their shotgun, inside a heart. my work goes from just a few pounds for an inscription up to thousands of pounds for a collectors piece .The wolf piece is £400 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
riohog 5,621 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 This is a piece of optical crystal I have hand engraved with wolves in the moonlight.

No Laser's, no sandblasting -all done freehand using a dental drill ,but I have used some acid etch on the sky using an etching paste and applied by artist brushes to get the soft nightime sky effect Quote Link to post Share on other sites
