I'm holding the flexshaft right, not forcing the bit....but **SNAP** there goes another one.. Now I can be on the lookout for paint. Any tips on the sticker paper? sometimes, no matter how careful I am it will strip some of the orange paint off the outside. I found a craft paint (acrylic) that I touch those little spots up with. I am also careful to not really press down hard on the sticker paper. Have you run into this? TIA!
Zombie Pumpkins! wrote:Of your carvings so far, my favorites are Lon Chaney Jr. as the WolfMan (original art by Jason Edmiston, I'm a big fan, look up his work!). And Groot is pretty insane. If I designed a pattern like that, I would take that as a starting point and then simplify/reduce the shapes to help carvers keep their sanity. 189 cut out shapes? Good gourd, if my designs have more than 35 cut out shapes I usually classify them as "maniac" level. I guess you're crazy well beyond the typical maniac. I always suspected so.

Thanks for the tip on the sticker paper, I'm going to definitely give that a try! I need to teach myself patience, so maybe, just maybe, after the season calms down I'll save a funkin or two to refine my technique and practice on..... BTW, I call myself the crazy pumpkin lady, so I'll be joining you in that padded room! lol!!!
