new member Hobo nickel work
HI I just signed up and I am here because I am eager to learn more about what exactly I am trying to do
 I am a commercial artist already and I saw hobo nickels on the net so I figured I would give it a try. after another artist friend who does jewelry work saw me trying to make one with a rotary tool he gave me some hand gravers and a basic under standing of their use. this is the outcome:    my latest and favorite so far...  I appreciate any critiques and suggestions as I am going to have a million questions because I am enjoying the hell out of this

Re: new member Hobo nickel work
