Preview thumbnail for Welp I’m still not ready to engrave firearms but it’s hard to hurt the value of a Rock Island 1911. Who am I to say no when friends offer their slides for practice plates 😂 I see small glimmers of encouraging improvement and I’m having a lot of fun. One month in to this learning journey so far. image

Preview thumbnail for First time whittling on an actual firearm- it’s a rock island officer’s slide that somebody ‘carry melted’ so no valuable parts were harmed. Both proud of it so far and hopeful that I’ll be able to look back at my first scratches once I gain some skill in a few years. image

Preview thumbnail for Second plate ever on the right. I’m starting to get a little more comfortable controlling my lines. Ordered a bunch of books so I can work on the history and vocabulary of traditional styles. Next I want to pick a pattern transfer technique so I can draw off the plate first. image
