From this glamore shot. This is a Threshold rendering - my favorite type.

Note to any cutters. I forgot to mention at the time I posted this - the threshold rendering often produces one or more BIG peninsulas. On this pattern, Liz's face is held in place by a single very small bridge at her chin. I suggest you leave a temporary bridge about where you might have a part in hair or near the ears, then cut it out as your last cut. You could also leave the hair for the last cut, but it's a big, complex piece and might cause a break.

I have not tried to cut this, so I'd appreciate seeing one that someone finished.

I really like this pattern and just had two goes at it, but both times I broke it where the arrow is. Must remember to do the delicate bits first. :)
