Stamp carving

Mining the photos I've previously uploaded to dA, because I had to give the camera card reader back to the person I borrowed it from, so no new pics for a little while.


This was my first real foray into stamp carving. I used the bubblegum pink speedball stamp carving medium that comes with their kits. At the time I did this I only had a basic kit, and I'd lost one of the carving tool tips, so I did the whole thing with the v shaped one. I recommend against this, it takes forever to carve out large areas. I drew the design based on the composition of a piece of dragon art I found on dA, which I've now lost track of.

I've been wanting to try stamp carving for a while - yours looks great! I love the curve of the dragon.
