mr.glass,

Thank you SE,
you are correct in saying it is an african wild dog. A south african friend of mine refered to it as an African hunting wolf when i showed him and now its stuck in my head

Heya mr.glass

Some lovely examples there indeed.

thank you for your kind words mehoose.

here is a car window i did for a customer this morning. cars are generally not my platform when it comes to engraving, but the customer wanted it done. as he has been a great customer in the past i couldn't say no to him.
he requested two skulls and six roses that didnt take up too much room on the window - but it still had to be a stand out feature.
this is what i came up with for him. he is very happy with it

sorry about the lighting, my camera died and i had to use my phone
