Wow, what do you call that style of engraving? In my mind, an engraver rises or falls on the quality of the figures. Your Bob Whites are spectacular, as is the "Flapper" on the knife.

Thank you for your compliments. I call that style "arboresque", I thought it would be appropriate for small bird and would put them in a more natural setting than scrolls.

"that was the closest topic, sorry about that."
I bet you are "forgiven"!
Beautiful work Thierry.

Really nice mix to showcase. I particularly appreciate how varied and effective your shading is. Thank you for the topic, and the generous video sharing.

Why the apologies? Any time you wish to share gun porn like that, I'm sure it will be welcome. Thanks for the links to your videos on engraving process and techniques. I've been wanting to learn some simple stuff for repairing damaged screw heads, etc., but I don't think you'll ever need to worry about any competition from me.
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.
