Title: First Polychrome
Post by: aaronc on November 02, 2018, 08:34:34 PM

I revisited a little horn I had scratched on a few months back. Wanted to add some more ink to it. Had been looking at doing some polychrome for a little bit so I took a swing at it. Some of the polychromes I see appear to have the colored ink simply rubbed over lettering to enhance it...others seem to have it etched in. I chose the latter,..mine is scratched. My little township that I had already done a few months ago was referenced from the Barnabas Webb horn which was a "Siege of Boston"
era horn,...I chose to just go further with that and this was it,...After getting my redcoats on there I couldn't help myself,........ I kild'em all...they make great targets. As always thanks for looking. -Aaron

 The carving looks very well done, as for color, I am color blind, Red/Green/Brown.
