How long did it take for you to make this? rather how long does it take for you to finish a piece from planning to execution, I'm very interested to know the process
from the design work on an illustrator, to transfer to lino plate and engraving, more than a hundred hours. engraving the plaque took me a little over 30 hours of work. You will find photos of the plates on my insta in bio :)
That is really impressive and a lot more hours than I'd thought
thank you, I work slowly and I like my plates to be impeccable. which adds a certain number of hours not necessarily necessary to the final result. but for me it is important.
Sounds like you're a perfectionist. I like it.
thanks mate !
