Latest bulino practice plate.

Since studying the new Fracassi book I have learned a lot. Here is a rhino getting a drink with black ominous clouds moving in with bright edges from the sun behind them. Actual size is 1" wide and 1 1/4"high. I hope you like it, Tim

Herman, Like I said on the hand engraving forum I really like the work for the full scene that you accomplished on this plate. You did a lot of detail and texture, makes it look more 3 dimensional (foreground, middle, background).

Curtis, thank you in saying that I have achieved my goal. Perspective and contrast in a bulino scene is what to strive for otherwise everything looks flat as if on the same level. Thank you again!
