finished door panels

[mark yundt]

Here is the result of the patterns I posted. The aren't all that big,,and the design had to match other pieces of furniture that the client has. Not only did the design have to tie in,,but the carving had to match as well. Even so,,I carved these deeper and cleaner than the examples they gave me which were rather crudely done.
So here is what I came up with.

Re: finished door panels

ah, these are truely beautiful. so clean and delicate ornaments. and, i know now how difficult to carve these are, to not break off a tiny chip. i am sure the client will bee overly happy, maybe you may recarve the other, cruder ones now too :-) ... thanks for sharing :-)

Re: finished door panels

Absolutely amazing to make matching sets such as shown. you would almost think they were done on some kind of duplicator, great carving Mark

Re: finished door panels

Put me in the ardent admirer camp too. So very neat and precise for such intricate and small carved features. I really appreciate you taking us through the process from the prep of the pattern to the finished product.

I certainly learn much from your generously shared posts. I am wondering what tool you use to achieve a smooth, flat bottom (background) when your carved features leave you little room to manuever?

Again...beautiful work!
