Sooty Crayfish (part 2 - complete)

Well our dearly departed Sooty Crayfish now has a little place in the art world.


"Sooty Crayfish" stage 2 - dry & engraved.
Today I am going to turn things around a little. There are pros & cons to when you do the fore/background with these "DNA Stain" engravings.

Background wash on first today.
"Sooty Crayfish" stage 3 - background sandstone on.
In theory all we need to do now is add the "DNA stain" colour. It is a lot more fiddly & time consuming this way around but you can end up with better contrast, depending what you do.

You can view the completed "Sooty Crayfish" HERE.
