Very nice but it's a little grainy. Try smaller dots

The problem with the size of the dots is because I not have a microscope, I have planned to buy in a short time.
the size of the piece is 32 x 78 mm, very recently that I started with Scrimshaw (three months) and is one of the things I have to improve.
Thanks for the criticism that is what makes us improve

Cristian,

I do not use microscope for my bulino work on steel as I want it to look
good to the naked eye. Just make sure your scrim needle is very sharp
and make tinier dots. Hope this helps.

of course it helps, I'm rather lazy with my needles. is something I have to take the habit of sharpening more often.
