Recently we started engraving in class, I found it to be very enjoyable as I like doing fine detail in my work.
To get a feel of things, we were given some plastic to engrave into, as it's cheaper than wood.

I decided to do a print of all three engravings on one piece of paper. |

Continuing my Linocut moths, I've added three Hawk-moths to the original four Silkmoths. |
I will try to get some better pictures of the engravings with my camera!
