If you have any suggestions or internet pages that could help me it would be nice. Thank you in advance | ||

I think it might help newbies like myself who want to try expand their pyrography artwork and combine it with a little bit of carving. This is the site : http://www.carvingpatterns.com/landscapes/landscapes_2.htm Any other suggestions of other sites are mostly welcome as well as some extra advices (which are more important) by experts. Thank you all. | ||

The more carving you do, the less burning and vice versa. I have chosen to completely minimalize the carving. I create different levels, sand them all smooth, then burn. | ||

Hooked i just want to learn shallow relief carving in order to give a 3 dimensional feeling to some of my burnings, use it only around the theme, not detailed. My main problem is that i don't know how to control the depth, to be the same around the sketch, and how to carve away the wood around in the same depth. I have woodcarving tools and i've tried some time ago but if there is some special tip about these two matters i would appreciate it a lot. | ||
