Family circumstances forced me to close workshop on the balcony - now it is not allowed to make any dust in the apartment.//

Going to dust free technologies. Scrimshaw.
The third entry. (first, on tagua and second on soup bone were too bad).
Vault boy and the dragon in Celtic style on Mammoth ivory.

Figures height is about 1 inch.

Very nice job on the scrimshaw! It is something I have wanted to try, but I would have to work my drawing skills back up first.

Thanks. :)

I just place coin to show size. I agree, it is not best way to use russian coind on american forum, but i have only local coins in my wallet. :biggrin:

Size of coin on picture with horse - 20,5 mm (0,8"), on the Terrible Terror pic - 25mm (1").

It is not easy to make scrimshaw on pen, because pen too small and round.
Maybe some sort of snake around barrel... Or scrimshawed snake skin. :)

Don't think any should have any problem with your countries coins as they generally are better looking than ours or at least have an assortment of differing subjects on them!
