Phoenix from the foams


I've been trying to etch a phoenix for Eldritch, it's not been going so well because I can't get the right level of detail, this one was interesting though so I thought I'd post my mistake. I think what happened is that I engraved around the outside of the phoenix to leave it standing proud and then I managed to engrave the phoenix anyway. The result is a little bobble around the outside of the shape presumably where some of the foam expanded on the first pass and then was no longer under the beam for the second pass. It's an interesting effect I'll just wait and see if Simon can do anything useful with it.
