Silver bracelet finished
Just finished this silver bracelet this evening. There are a few things I see now that I could have or should have done differently, but I'll have to keep these in mind for my next project. Any critique would be helpful, thanks.
Bracelet is 1" at the widest point by 6" in length. Gene I just added another photo (Last one). I think this shows the equal dimensions a little better, however the photo is not as clear.

Hey Gene, I'm not qualified to make any critiques but it looks great to me.

Re: Silver bracelet finished
Gene, that is very nice, can I ask what you used for your background removal? Thanks

Re: Silver bracelet finished
Looking good Gene!
I probably would have shaded the scroll heads though. Then again, I always shade my scroll heads. :smile[2]: |

Re: Silver bracelet finished
Gene, Glad to see you back at it. Looks pretty good. Without being to nit picky i would work on making your tendril heads a little more rounder and consistent in size. Thanks for giving us a look and i really like the shape of the bracelet. Doug

Re: Silver bracelet finished
Thanks yall for the ideas. It is easy to concentrate intensly on design and cutting that a lot of details go unnoticed until someone points them out. I appreciate your comments. SOJ, I used a highspeed rotary tool and a modified 1/4 round bur for background removal then stippled with a pointed bur mounted in my airgraver.

Re: Silver bracelet finished
Gene,
Is it trick photography or is one end longer than the other? Looks like the right side is longer. Thanks, Roger |

Re: Silver bracelet finished
Hi Roger,
Ya, the 2nd photo looks a little distorted. Actually the design is a mirror copy on both sides. I think it is the angle that I was holding the camera. I'll see if I have a better photo showing the equal sides. Thanks, Gene Roger, I just added another photo, quality is not as clear, however I think it shows the dimensions a little better. The second photo does seem to show some distortion. Thanks.
