Any Vector Artists that can help me?

After a few glasses of wine, (or the bottle) I think you may be having some trouble with blurred lines. I know I would…

In my limited experience. I have found that the trace bit map tool is not very good for any sort of detail. Also. Fixing amd editing the vectors from that tracing tool seems to me a lot more time consuming and harder than just drawing from scratch. Using the bit map to manually draw over it. This way you can keep lines in parellel and create accurate geometry that the machine can deal with much easier. But you have come to the same conclusion. Hours drawing in v carve will produce better result. I have literally had 16+ hours of drawing time on a single project. The quick engrave is great and will be best for your project. Another great feature I like to use in v carve are layers. To create different depthes and features in different parts of the drawings. Happy designing

What bit did you use on the brass?
Looks great from the view.
