Popular Post Old Joe Posted May 7, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 This 6x9” Stevie Ray Vaughn cutting is a case of too little of a good thing. Again, I decided to cut a slightly modified Charles Dearing portrait much smaller than the artist intended.Actually, only the guitar was too difficult. I used mainly a combination of Pegas 2/0 spirals and Pegas MG 2/0 and MG #1s with micro drill bits. 1/4” Baltic Birch mounted on 3/4” Pine, stained True Black. frankorona, Scrolling Steve, jollyred and 9 others 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwine Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) Very nice work! Charles patterns are a challenge to cut but the result is well worth it! You did yourself proud with this one even with the reduced in size pattern! Well done! Erv Edited May 7, 2020 by redwine Old Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denny, I regret making it as small as I did. I do like to challenge myself with miniaturizing patterns, but the spaces were just too small, as I have 3 minor “blowouts” on spaces between the frets. I thought about attempting to cover them, but decided against it.I added detail to Stevie’s fingers that Dearing didn’t have, including finger nails and wrinkles on his knuckles.This is probably my least favorite of musician portraits that I’ve done, but I have someone interested in it to purchase, so I won’t dwell on the screwups.
