    Cool art style on this one. I also was very surprised to see pyrography being but looking at the paintin technique you displayed eariler it should fit in nicely :)

    Subscribed in the blink of an eye!

    Back for a small update for one more time!!

    After almost 40 hours of exhausting work I finished the main totem for the side panel !!

    Here is a quick shoot after I finished it and measured it for some cuts!

    [​IMG]

    After cutting the board I had to add some more details with red cadmium powder paint which is the best for wood!

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    After that I used a brown powder paint and my finger to rub the paint to change the color of the wood. I forgot to take some pictures but I will show the process to the other totems and designs I am going to do!

    Here I measure for the holes to be drilled cause I am going to use bolts to attach the totem on a steel surface and later on, on an aluminum surface!

    Until next time guys, take care!!! :)

    Hello people again! Here is the progress I did so far. I created some art work for the right side panel and for the bezzel. I will start by showing you the 2 totems that I will later on, add on the panel.

    Side panel totems:
    ------------------------
    Here is the drawing I did on a 3 mm pine board. (I got the ideas from different totems of the world)

    Here is my trusty pyrograph with different heads:

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    After cutting the wood to the desired design, my pyrograph and I, we were busy for 16 hours to bring this result :

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Time for the "red" details now! So here is what paint I use :

    [​IMG]

    And here is where I started with ... a mistake. Fortunately I fixed that later using some sandpaper!

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    After this and that here are some shots (not finished... red acrylic background later)

    So now lets move on to the second part. Here is something I did for the intake fans. I used the same pine board.

    Here are some measures and preparation:

    [​IMG]

    And let the drawing and the imagination begin!!!!

    [​IMG]

    For the cutting process I used my old trusty Mannesmann which lately acts strange. I might let it rest in peace! LoL

    And a buddy!

    [​IMG]

    Here is the progress with the pyrograph ( 5 continues hours till the end)

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    And some shots after the red details and the brown paint rubbing:

    In all of this mod I am using uneven techniques to create the "old" effect. I am going to show more on the door I am going to create!
    Later guys! Please comment and give me strength to move on with this mod! Peace!

    That's amazing. You never fail to inspire with new methods and new ideas! :thumb:

    OTOH, that lizard's ass looks a bit weird. Sure you can't even it out some?

    Thanks my friend your words are very encouraging! I ll do my best! :)

    Thanks dawg!

    Thanks my friend for your nice words! I use tribalism techniques which they tend to separate lines from a single design, thats why it looks weird! I hope its not so ugly! :duh:

    Not ugly at all mate, it looks fine. It's just a little out of sync with the curve on the rest of the tail/body.

    loving this project, I used a pyrograph for my school exam art project about 15 years ago really fun tool to use. I bought one a few years back but it just doesnt get hot enough to burn the wood properly. I can vouch for just how hard it is to use one to get the effects that you have.

    OMG my friend Bad_cancer I am so sorry! I promise I will help you with new ideas to fix my mistake or we will say to everyone that isnt copied! LoL :p :D

    Thanks man! I am glad to see that they are people that they used pyrograph and understand the difficulty of this project! But patience and passion brings good results! I think....! LoL :thumb:
