Soft Ground

The third and last copper assignment in the intro print class was to... shade? Well I don't quite remember, but I do know that I kinda curved it to allow me to create yet another logo/art for one of my other sites (it isn't up yet).. neither is Nucheese for that matter...

Just like with Hard Ground, Soft Ground is also a acid resistant coating that is applied to a copper plate then scraped off and etched in acid. Soft Ground is suppose to create the effect of shading, sadly I not only was unable to achieve this but I also got fowl bite. The little dots all over my image.
