ok here is another try at it.
i know the flowers are a mess, but i like the rest of the buckle.
after i get the flower aspect of it i will need to start on the veins of the leaves.
one step at a time as they sayAttachment 738

Attachment 739
and fill the rest of the area in.....i know....i know....

Did you make the buckle or just engrave it? sometimes we don't appreciate our own work because it didn't turn out the way we wanted. Other people just see what we do and like it.

I like it! :thumbsup:

I was just commenting on another belt buckle that we (engravers / makers) tend to look at them wrong. We've got them right there on our bench - even under microscopes.

But in real life, they're over there, around somebody's middle. That means what we see is closer to the thumbnail image than the closeup.
