Horse Portrait
« on: August 13, 2012, 04:29:38 am »
Hi ,This is a Portrait of a horse that  i cut  for  a friend ! I posted the picture in the Patterns section as i was having great difficulty converting into a pattern but as i had no replies i contacted the great Charles Dearing  who did a wonderful job and came up with a Awesome pattern ! It is cut from 6.5mm (1/4") birch ply and measures 24" x 20" , It was cut using spiral blades
My friend loved it when she seen it !
I have put the picture that the pattern was done from then the cutting...Hope you like it ! ...Pete

Very nice pattern from Mr. Dearing, and a fine job with the cutting as well.

Awesome, and the fact that Charlie draws them by hand just makes it more impressive.
