vykus Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) I got my first scroll saw off of craigs list a little over two months ago and fell in love with it. I made this portrait from a photo of my brother in law with his son the day he was born. It is my first portrait and will be given to him for Christmas. Overall I am very pleased with the outcome, I know a few things that I will need to watch for on my next one. I look forward to your comments and constructive criticisms.
