A brief update on the wooden monogram pictures I am building for my friend's Christmas presents. I am trying to make each one unique and in that quest decided to make my room mates letter with an Elven pattern, so I sat down with masking tape, an Exacto knife and a Sharpie to replicate the design I found online. I started watching Captain America and by the end of the Avengers I was finished, this was a long process. By cutting around the pattern and removing the "field" and coloring over the exposed wood I made a negative of the pattern. I then went in with a detail pen to draw the lines that make the overlapping effect. And finally, placed it in its frame, there may be some work given to the blue background later. More about the other letters to come.
