Wow, nice work on the guns also!

Very nice. Do you sell your work? I took a lion last year and this would be a great way to commemorate it.

 

[ActionBob]

Wow all cool but absolutely love the elephant and the watch! Thanks for sharing.

I do sell my work. Send me a PM and we can discuss a project to commemorate your lion.

Well...it's official. You guys have distracted me. I stayed up most of the night working on this. I think I have a good start so I can get back to my commissions. I'll post more photos as work progresses.

Here are some fun little ivory poker chip/card protectors that I've done over the years.

I've managed to squeeze in a bit more time on this drawing...
I'm starting to think that I may need to do a Big Five series.

You are a true artist, beautiful work. Forrest

 

[Darrel Morris]

I've been making some progress... Now I have to do the hard part. I need to add detail and create a sense of volume and shape, without letting the whole drawing get too dark.

I like your elephants!

Fantastic work, I look forward to seeing more. I too may need something to commemorate the lioness I took last year.

 

[ArmyGrunt]

just...WOW. I'm blown away at the details. Marvelous work!

 

[Darrel Morris]

Getting close to finishing this. Time to start my search for a new art printer.

truly delightful. once you finish this part with the pen, how do you go about its application to the final piece? And how might one obtain a piece of your work?

Thank you. This is the final piece. I create drawings and scrimshaw. The drawings are done with a pen. The scrimshaw is the same basic technique, but done with a needle. To answer your last question, you can just send me a PM.

have you made any buffalo horn or elephant ivory cuff links??

I have not, but I certainly can. I'd be happy to discuss it by PM.

Beautiful work, how difficult was it to do the obama scrimshaw without getting sick? Is the premise of those 1911's complete opposites? They are beautiful pistols, I just don't understand the obama and his counterpart. Can you explain what the concept was for this?
Your elephants are exceptional!
