Default Black Labrador Dog Scrimshaw

Some of you may have seen this in Reno, it was a work in progress at the time. I just finished it a couple days ago, and was totally blown away by the amount of time that went into it!

It's a 2x2 inch piece of Corian. I must say it was nice to work on something other than those itty bitty pendants, but it seemed... enormous! I'd love to know how many dots are in this thing! My feelings about Corian are somewhat mixed. I know it doesn't have the "ooh" factor of ivory, but I will say it was *really* nice to work on, very very much like ivory. Does anyone do knife scales in Corian??





Here's how much I see at one time under the scope (10X), just for kicks.



Onward! I'm totally diggin this scrimshaw.
