Snakes on a plate

[Andrew Biggs]

Hi guys

Well, here's my latest engraving. The Springfield floor plate is all done in relief with small flats and punches with a beaded background and then finished off with abrasive rubbers and pastes. It's a lot of work but a lot of fun as well with all the usual challenges. The cougar is from a photo I took at the Safari Club International show earlier this year.

As usual your thoughts and comments are always welcome.

Cheers
Andrew
