Let there be dragons

Dragon & Phoenix
I continue to refine the details in the image and now have move into part of the Phoenix's wing and some of the open air flames. You should also see more distinction in the Dragons face and eyes.

Dragon & Phoenix
Okay everyone most of the Negative space parts are cut out. So now a great deal of fine tuning, refining and smoothing. Once I complete that I will start to add the color. This will most likely be my last post on this piece until it is completely finished.

What do you use to color? Ink, dye or what?

Okay everyone I continue to carve and refine over the whole project. One of the main things I did was remove a good bit around the head of large Phoenix. I have also have added a great bit of detail on the lower section flames. If you look closely you can also see I have removed the pieces in between the very fragile thin parts.
