Re: Just some pics
Thanks Brian, I use paint.net it's free its like the old windows paint but much
better. With the Monroe vcarve I used the lasso function around the original picture then cropped it and that got rid of the background. For my corian lithos I pocket the back flip it over and then do my carve, I tell the software I'm using a .030 ballmill when in fact I'm using a small vbit. I use 15% step over cut at 80 ipm in one go. The Beatles litho is done in sign plastic but I actualy did use the .030 ballmill, material is .125 thick and I only went down.061 . At 80 ipm it took 1.40 hours. Most of my knowledge came from this forum , I'm very greatfull.The cartoon sketch was done with my rock cliff pen/marker holder, using cut2d. It was a test on dollar store canvas frames.
