Looks good so far. How much time do you have invested in this piece so far?

You’ve probably seen this one John, just wanted to post it for others that are curious.

Not long enough yet, needs to be completed by the end of the month so I am tending to do it evenings at present which isn’t ideal as I am a morning person, but I keep topping up the malt glass little and often and the time seems to fly by!! 😉
-
Yes I did see this Marek
Although I don’t remember seeing the completed project

Maybe because it is not completed yet John!!! 😀 😀 Weymouth is a seriously laid back place mate 😎 😎
-
Looking forward to the completed piece Nobby

Not half as much as me John!!! :lol1: :lol1:

Cant want to see the finished piece. The royal coat of arms and heraldry in general has always fascinated me.
-
Cool work Nobby, as has been said, can’t wait to see the finished piece!
Cheers, Dewi

You should rub the parts that aren’t to be gilded with a raw potato.
An old Irish trick I hear.
I hate it when I gild & the gold is more brilliant
where I DON’T want it to stick than where I laid it on the damn size.
That is why I rarely gild.
Looks good so far tho!
Love….Jill -
Looking good already. That gold leaf is just beautiful. Wish I could do that.

I know where you are coming from Jill, it’s a right pain in the butt!! I tend to use whiting or talc around the areas not to be gilded, smells nicer than potatoes too!!!
They Irish folks are nuts!! :lol1: :lol1:
