Some Practice

[forthelove]

Hello Everyone, here's a few of the things I have been working on. Its all for practice now. Any suggestions are more than welcome. The toxic one was just an experiment with some letters and the foam stuff..thinking of ways to paint it up..kinda fitting for a fourteen year old's messy room. The other ones were my more serious attempts at learning curves and angled cuts and what not..thanks for looking..

Those home ones were kinda challenging and really fun to do. Working on some other ones now. Fun stuff. Thanks for the reply lefty.

Looks good. I really like the toxic one.

Really nice work! Especially for "practice." Looks more like projects to me. Your framework on Home Sweet Home adds a nice touch. And I agree that TOXIC is "kinda fitting for a fourteen year old's messy room."

i like the merry christmas one too, i like to think of every piece as a practice piece for if it came out perfect every time i think i may get bored and try to find something more challenging , thats why i like scrolling always a challenge in every piece

Thanks Jim, I am working hard to get the hang of it. Yeah Lefty, I see what you mean, it is very challenging I just do this for fun now so its all practice, not too sure when I'll feel confident enough selling my stuff. Ah, Oily thanks, no ringer here, just a letterhead at heart and been drawing letters most of my life so the saw is weird, its like a sharpie with a blade ! Been Practicing drawing my own letters and words using some of the Speilman/Boelman/Burghout patterns as examples as how they are put together. Posting some new stuff over the next few days.
