giampieroricci Posted August 12, 2019 Author #703 Posted August 12, 2019 (edited) How is a small decoration born? Many ask me what technique I use or what tools I use for the small decorations of my model. I thought that maybe a video can give the right answers. Obviously it's a lot of speed up, it took me about three hours to make a small frieze like the one in the video, but I think you understand it well .... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cl5zRTmyYM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzEC_9yf4Sg Edited August 12, 2019 by giampieroricci Oliver1973, Katoom, dvm27 and 7 others 10

druxey Posted August 13, 2019 #710 Posted August 13, 2019 One way to avoid carving up your fingers is to mount the blank piece on a backing block of wood. I use PVA glue to hold it. That way, fingers are well out of the way and one has good control while carving. When the complete, I soak the carving and block in isopropanol (rubbing alcohol 99%) to release it. jose_b, mtaylor and giampieroricci 3 Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv
